Calvino uses a fairytale style of writing about the story of a baronet who stays in the tree for a self-fulfilling life. The novel, in many ways, embodies the novelist views discussed in Calvino’s American Speeches, such as lightness, precision, vividness and so forth. In this paper, we analyze Calvino ’s “Light and Easy” novels by analyzing the fairy tale writing of Baron on the Tree.
