- Jared Diamond: “Readers might be surprised by another great Italian novel that I have re-read four times. It’s the greatest work by the Italian author Dino Buzzati, called The Tartar Steppe. It’s a beautifully written, slowly unfolding story of a man who lets himself become trapped by circumstances.”
