In 65, Saint Lucifer street a plaque was placed commemorating the stay in Cagliari of the writer Grazia Deledda. It was in this building that in 1899 the young woman came from Nuoro, determined to work as a journalist. A few steps from Saint Cosimo square and the Basilica of Saint Saturnino. It was an intense year for the future Nobel Prize winner for literature. In the city of the sun, which Grazia renamed the city of love, she met a special man: Palmiro Madesani, who would soon become her husband for life.
The inscription reads:
In this house
where she lived in 1899
devoted to art and hope
Fervid she dreamed hours
Of a thoughtful youth
GRAZIA DELEDDA
In the year 1955
Auspice The Friends of the Book Association
In memory of the old building
which hosted Grazia Deledda
