Cesare Pavese’s novel La casa in collina delves into the theme of escape and reintegration as depicted through the experiences of its protagonist, Corrado. Driven by a desire to flee the disorderly urban landscape, Corrado seeks solace in the serene countryside. This essay examines the stages of Corrado’s escape and delves into the motivations behind his desire to evade his reality and obligations. Additionally, it emphasizes the significance of Corrado’s return to his native land and investigates the correlation between his childhood recollections and his homecoming. Moreover, the essay endeavors to dissect the intricate relationship between escape and the wartime backdrop within the novel. Corrado’s flight symbolizes an inward quest, an attempt to break free from the burdens of daily life. Amidst the tranquility of the hillside abode, he discovers a respite from the superficiality and materialism of urban existence. However, this respite proves transient as Corrado eventually realizes his inability to entirely disconnect from the outside world, prompting his decision to reintegrate into his former life. Through Corrado’s escapade and subsequent return, Pavese explores timeless themes including personal shortcomings, self-discovery, and the senselessness of war. As Corrado traverses his journey back, he grapples with the irrationality of conflict upon encountering casualties on the roadside, all while reflecting on his own perceived failure to engage in anti-fascist resistance alongside his comrades.
