Paola Drigo Paola ("née" Bianchetti) Drigo (4 January 1876 – 4 January 1938) was an Italian writer of short stories, novellas, and novels. Her first collection of short stories, "La fortuna", was published in 1913 and caught the attention of literary critics and the public. Her last major works were two novels, "Fine d'anno" and "Maria Zef", both published in 1936. With a style rooted in 19th century Italian realism, she was admired for the detailed psychological analysis of her characters and her descriptions of provincial life in her native Veneto region. The protagonists of her stories (usually women) were people of humble origin or those who had been "humiliated by fate".
