From the Land of the Moon (Italian: Mal di Pietre) is a 2006 novella by the Italian writer Milena Agus. It was translated into English in 2010 by Ann Goldstein. Agus asked that the passages of her work that were written in Sardinian be kept, a wish that was respected.[1]

The novella was adapted as a French film, Mal de pierres (2016), released with subtitles in English as From the Land of the Moon, written and directed by Nicole Garcia and starring Marion Cotillard.
