The literary master Calvino begins by defining what a "classic" is and how to approach reading them. He reviews a series of world-renowned works, offering insights on each one, and answers the question of why it's important to read the classics.
Calvino was an Italian author whose unique and imaginative fables made him one of the most important novelists of the 20th century. His notable works include *The Castle of Crossed Destinies,* *The Cloven Viscount,* *The Baron in the Trees,* and *If on a Winter's Night a Traveler.*
