Excerpt from Three Crosses
The latter gave a grunt, swore, pulled down the brim of his hat and closed his eyes again. He was squatting in a chair, with his hands in his trouser-pockets and his head leaning against one of the shelves of the bookcase; near by was an antique wooden chest, covered with vases, china plates and paintings, kept there on view for strangers.

Excerpt from Three Crosses
Federigo Tozzi died of influenza and pneumonia in Rome on 21st March 1920, just when Three Crosses had brought him recognition and success after a life of poverty and struggle. Not till a month before his death did he begin to think of allowing himself the luxury of a shelf for his books. He was born on New Year's Day, 1883, at Siena where the scene of all his novels is laid. His childhood was unhappy. His father, violent and overbearing in character, was a prosperous innkeeper, proprietor of the "Pesce Azzurro," now the "Sasso Rosso." Such a man could only despise the timid, sensitive, yet passionate boy, who showed no inclination to follow in his footsteps - a worthless waster, whose one interest was in books, though he had proved a hopeless failure at school. Con Gli Ochi Chiusi is largely a record of his own childhood, containing a description of his mother's death and of an early love affair. Tozzi developed slowly.
