The House by the Medlar Tree is a realist work concerning Sicilian life and the dangers of economic and social turmoil. The story focuses on the hardworking and happy Malavoglia family that borrows money from a local lender against unreceived cargo, they wish to resell. When it is lost at sea, the family attempts everything in their power to repay the debt. Several setbacks follow as the family faces trouble from every quarter. Whatever dreams the family formulated over three generations, they witness them destroyed and struggle to make ends meet. This story of the family of fishermen is set in Aci Trezza, a small Sicilian village near Catania, where life revolves around constant gossip about honor, money, and marriage. The novel maintains a choral element and portrays characters that are united by the same culture but divided by ancient feuds. The tone is kept light through the irony with which the author depicts the characters and their peculiarities. The story is a remarkable portrayal of the life of an unlucky family in a Sicilian village and is full of sorrow, loss, warmth, and redemption.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1890 edition. Excerpt: ... "This was papa's place, where there's the new rowlock," said Luca, who had climbed over the side, "and here were the lupins, underneath." But of the lupins there was not one left; the sea had swept everything clean away. For this reason Maruzza would not leave the house, and never wanted to see the Provvidenza again in her life. "The hull will hold; something can be made of it yet," pronounced Master Zuppiddu, the calker, kicking the Provvidenza, too, with his great ugly feet; "with three or four patches she can go to sea again; never be fit for bad weather--a big wave would send her all to pieces--but for 'long-shore fishing, and for fine weather, she'll do very well." Padron Cipolla, Goodman Mangiacarubbe, and Cousin Cola stood by, listening in silence. "Yes, ' said Padron Fortunato, at last. "It's better than setting fire to her." "I'm glad of it," said Uncle Crucifix, who also stood looking on, with his hands behind his back. "We are Christians, and should rejoice in each other's good - fortune. What says the proverb? 'Wish well to thy neighbor and thou wilt gain something for thyself.'" The boys had installed themselves inside the Provvidenza, as well as the other lads who insisted on climbing up into her, too. "When we have mended the Provvidenza properly," said Alessio, "she will be like Uncle Cola's Concetta;" and they gave themselves no end of trouble pushing and hauling at her, to get her down to the beach, before the door of Master Zuppiddu, the calker, where there were the big stones to keep the boats in place, and the great kettles for the tar, and heaps of beams, and ribs and knees leaning against the wall. Alessio was always at loggerheads with the other boys, who wanted to climb up into the boat, and to help to fan the...
