“scarlet peppers like trumpets: magnificent fennels, so white & big & succulent; baskets of new potatoes; scaly kohlrabi; big, clean-fleshed carrots; feathery salads with white hearts; pyramids of big oranges...The green and vivid colored world of fruit-gleams I have never seen in such splendor as under the market roof at Cagliari: so raw & gorgeous“ #SavvySettings Day 25 #Fair

Accabadora was a woman who gave death like an act of mercy to people who's suffering for debilitating diseases. Actually, it's not proven that this figure was really existed in Sardinia in the past, but the novel is about one of this women and it tells about her role in the society and as a mother (she adopted a rejected girl).
It's the first book that came to my mind for #matriarch ❤
