Drama. Translated from the Italian by Ilaria Papini. "Building on a classic noir premise—the discovery of an unidentified dead girl, dumped on the side of a road—Fausto Paravidino's STILL LIFE IN DITCH, masterfully translated by Ilaria Papini, creates something boldly original: a riveting murder mystery constructed entirely of vivid monologues. As the plot unfolds through the intricate interplay of voices, we are not only swept towards a powerhouse climax but—even more impressively—taken deep into the minds of a half-dozen living, breathing unforgettable characters."—Harold Schechter
