plant

As a journalist, Pino mainly wrote reports on rural life and agriculture.

She made her debut as a writer with poems and short stories in magazines and had her greatest success with the novel Every Evening in Solenzara , with which she won the 1985 novel competition. In, the narrator reflects on her return to the countryside after living in the city for years. In this “reportage novel” the “basic values ​​of life in changing times” are dealt with; the novel is also characterized by a rigid “anti-war pathos”, since the childhood of the first person falls during the Second World War . In this respect, the author is comparable to Aimée Beekman .
