Book excerpt: Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936), world-renowned writer, is arguably best known in the US as a dramatist, particularly for the innovative "theatre within the theatre" aspect of his 1926 "Six Characters in Search of an Author" (Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore), which has been called a "technical tour de force" and is still considered an avant¿garde masterpiece. Rather prolific, Pirandello produced hundreds of short stories, several novels, and much poetry in addition to about 50 plays. He was awarded the 1934 Nobel Prize in Literature for "his almost magical power to turn psychological analysis into good theater." (He was also quite capable of turning psychological analysis into good prose, I might add.)
