About this person
Grazia Maria Cosima Damiana Deledda was born on 27 September 1871 in Sardinia, an island whose landscape and people would become the bedrock of her fiction. She wrote with what the Nobel committee called "plastic clarity," rendering the life of her native island in prose that was both intensely local and universal in its treatment of human struggle. Her work captured isolation, tradition, and the weight of fate with depth and sympathy. In 1926 she received the Nobel Prize for Literature, the first Italian woman so honored and only the second woman ever, following Selma Lagerlöf in 1909. She continued writing until her death on 15 August 1936.
