About this listen

In this episode of English with Love, I’ll tell you the story of a young 14-year-old boy who was judged for being different.
It’s a touching story about strength, courage, and resilience. 💪✨

The story was written by the Italian author Giovanni Verga in 1878, but I’ve adapted it into simple, modern English for our micro-lesson today — to help you enjoy a classic piece of Italian literature while improving your English listening skills. 📖💫

Each week, I create short and easy-to-follow mini-lessons designed to:
🎧 Improve your listening and comprehension skills
