Information
Verona, A. Mondadori, 1942. In 8° small. Paperback with transparent acetate protection and publisher's band. First edition of the collection of poems. Essay by Sergio Colmi. Stamps and pencil marks. Copy in excellent condition.
A key text of twentieth-century poetry, in this collection from 1942, perhaps his most famous work together with the Greek Lyrics , Salvatore Quasimodo gives definitive form to the poetic production of the previous twenty years. All the hermetic characteristics of his poetry are detectable: the frequent use of analogy and ellipsis, the dissolution of syntactic links, which allows the expressive values to be entrusted to the word highlighted in its singularity. From the reading emerge echoes of musical cadences, visions of sunny landscapes and flights of birds, reminiscences of myths.
