Alba De Céspedes
A coming-of-age novel that is as relevant today as it was nearly ninety years ago, There’s No Turning Back centers on eight women with radically different backgrounds who attend the same college in Rome. Some are there to study, others to escape a scandal, or keep a secret, and during their time there, they experience the challenges of love, work, and emancipation.
Considered experimental and revolutionary at the time, this novel established Alba de Céspedes as “one of Italy’s most cosmopolitan, incendiary, insightful, and overlooked writers” (Jhumpa Lahiri, Pulitzer Prize winner). Translated by Ann Goldstein, There’s No Turning Back demonstrates why de Céspedes deserves “an important place in the canon of women’s literature” (Chicago Review of Books).

Kritikerstimmen
"Aida Reluzco’s narration brings depth to each character in this coming-of-age novel, which follows eight Italian women from vastly different backgrounds as they navigate the complexities of education, independence, and societal expectations. Banned in 1938 by the Fascist government, this story paints a wide picture of Italian womanhood. Some arrive at college eager to learn, while others seek refuge from scandal or the weight of their own secrets. Throughout their time together, they confront love, ambition, and the limits placed upon them. As Reluzco highlights their distinct voices and emotional journeys, her performance captures the tension between tradition and modernity, making the struggles of these women immediate and relevant. She magnifies the themes of resilience and self-discovery presented in these intertwined stories."
