Description

The story is presented through the eyes of Giuseppe, an emigrant who, from America, returns home for two weeks, to an Italian town on the Mediterranean coast to take a break from everyday life and to meditate on chronic problems with his wife. Once in Italy, old memories are mixed with the present life of the country. The visitor then learns from a group of elderly men that a friend from his youth died after leading a dissipated life. It ultimately becomes clear that it is the eponymous wise men of Pizzo who gather daily to talk about politics, medicine, religion, physics, philosophy, technology, and history and to languidly diagnose the world's problems amid refreshments that are the fountain of the town's provincial wisdom and the true heart of the picturesque village.
