italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Out of the countless possibilities there are presentations of the USA as a most exotic culture in Oriana Fallaci's Penelope alla guerra (on NY, 1961) and Andrea De Carlo's Treno di panna (on LA, 1978).

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
In the context of a research on alterity, I am looking for post-WW II
fictional text by Italian writers who describe the experience of
encountering a different culture by going abroad, something along the
lines of Tabucchi's _Notturno indiano_ but also about the degraded
experience of mass tourism (e.g., Nove's _Puerto Plata Market_). I'd
especially appreciate suggestions for books published in the 50s, 60s
and 70s. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Eugenio Bolongaro
