Her family disapproved of her desire to be a writer but that didn't stop her submitting stories and poetry to Italian magazines and publishing her first novel in her early twenties.
She went on to write well over fifty books and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1926. She died in Rome in 1936 at the age of 64. Her birthplace in Sardinia is now a museum in her honour.visualizza meno
