"Il cielo cade" is written in a narrative style of a child and from a child's perspective, completely foreign to that of an adult: the world in war described from the view point of a child, that is in love with Gesu', the Duce and with its adoptive uncle.
The following novel Con rabbia (Rage) is published in 1963 by Garzanti: "Penny hates not only the Germans, who have murdered her family but all hypocritical philistines, who make themselves guilty each day again".
