	Internet Book List :: Book Information: Malafrena
		When the fiery, idealistic Itale Sorde, son and heir to an estate owner in the beautiful Malafrena valley, is sent away to school, he quickly falls under the sway of an underground revolutionary movement sworn to destroy Austria's domination of Orsinia.
		Itale is prepared to die for his country's independence and refuses to return home to the complacent life of a wealthy landowner.
		But Itale pays a bitter price for his convictions: having already given up the secure life of Malafrena, the respect of his father, and perhaps the love of his childhood sweetheart, he is jailed by the Austrian secret police.

	Amazon.com: Malafrena: Books: Ursula K. Le Guin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		She says in the interview (b) that she turned to science fiction when she was told that her imaginary country was unmarketable, and (a) that it took the arrival of the women's movement circa 1970 for her to see her way to completing this book by doing justice to its several major female characters.
		Itale Sorde, raised in mountainous Malafrena in the imaginary land of Orsinia, becomes absorbed in the legacy and promise of the French Revolution.
		Of course, Malafrena is a good read in its own right: the story, sprawling through several years and as many peoples' lives, is curiously focused; the events, beautifully rendered in Le Guin's luminous prose, never fail to circle back in towards the simple questions that lie at the novel's center.

	Malafrena - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Malafrena is a novel published in 1979 by Ursula K. Le Guin.
		Although she is best known for science fiction and fantasy, the only unusual element of this novel is that it takes place in the imaginary Central European country of Orsinia, which is also the setting of her collection Orsinian Tales.
		The story takes place from 1825 to 1830, when Orsinia is ruled by the Austrian empire.

	Economic Thinking: Book Notes Northwood Talk
		Malafrena sounded like a mystical place and I assumed the novel would be science fiction or fantasy.
		Malafrena is not about free-markets or libertarian ideas.
		I read Malafrena in a fever similar to Itale Sorde's described above, and wished as well to leave the provinces and join the fight for (classical) liberalism.

		Here you will find more informations about Malafrena.
		The hero is Itale Sorde, the son of the owner of an estate on a lake called Malafrena in a valley of the same name.
		In many ways, Malafrena reads like a nineteenth-century novel, with its many detailed characters, its political movement and love-story subplots, its lack of the supernatural, and its settings that range from the mansions of the aristocracy to slums and prisons.

		It's too bad that most booksellers automatically, and mistakenly, placed this lovely "mainstream" historical novel in the science fiction section with the rest of Le Guin's work.
		It deserved a wider audience than it probably received.However...I wonder how many other Le Guin fans have noticed that MALAFRENA (written five years later) is essentially the same novel as THE DISPOSSESSED, its setting moved from a distant planet in the distant future, to an imaginary (but oh so real) country in early-19th-century Eastern Europe?
		Ursula le Guin is my favorite writer, so I don't pretend to be unbiased.
