The Top Ten is a list of the ten best books recommended to readers by Robinson, the weekly cultural supplement of La Repubblica, a leading Italian newspaper with a daily circulation of over 350,000 copies. All'ombra del fico, translated by Patrizia Raveggi, was published by Keller Editore in February when the author also made an appearance at TESTO book fair in Florence.
The novel's inclusion in the Top Ten list is a testament to its literary value and its enduring appeal to readers worldwide.
