About this book
Confessions of Zeno opens with a preface by a doctor who says he is sometimes spoken of in rather unflattering terms in this novel and that he persuaded his patient to write his autobiography. The doctor adds that the patient suddenly threw up his cure.
In one passage the narrator describes dates written on his walls, some of them painted in oils, each tied to a resolution renewed in good faith, and says the last of a series has an aroma all its own, a sense of victory over oneself. Another passage names Carla, Ada and Augusta, with Carla wanting to see his wife, and tells of his mother-in-law keeping a bandage over her eyes for several days while her daughters take turns to sit with her.
