About “Il Santo (novel)”
Il Santo, also known as The Saint, is an Italian novel written by Antonio Fogazzaro and published by Baldini & Castoldi in 1905 in Milan. It is the third and final book in a trilogy that includes Piccolo mondo antico and Piccolo mondo moderno. Although Fogazzaro was a devout Catholic, his novel was placed on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum, a list of banned books by the Vatican. This prohibition contributed to the novel's international recognition and helped increase Fogazzaro's fame. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
