Cippi Ciappi

About the Book

Cippi Ciappi is a timeless Italian fable, perhaps over a century old, originally brought to life around campfires and dinner tables well before the advent of television and radio. This wonderful tale concerns a wily character, Cippi Ciappi, who "helps" a handsome, naive young man discover himself and ultimately the importance of his family in his life. Written by author Maria Arena in Italian and presented in this English translation, this fable preserves a historic tradition of oral story telling.
