Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Virgins of the Rocks: Translated From the Italian of Gabriele D'annunzio
With these mortal eyes I beheld within a brief space of time three peerless souls unfold and blossom, and then wither away and perish one by one: the most beautiful, most passionate, and most miserable souls ever embodied in the latest descendants of a haughty race.
