Last Dream by Giovanni Pascoli
$16.00
Winner of the 2020 Raiziss/de Palchi Translation Award from the Academy of American Poets, an essential new translation of one of Italian literature's most celebrated poets.
Giovanni Pascoli stands as a towering figure at the threshold of modern Italian poetry, yet he is little known in English. He wrote his best poems in the last decade of the nineteenth century and the first few years of the twentieth, in an extraordinary burst that included his three most important collections, Myricae, Canti di Castelvecchio, and Primi poemetti. In this volume, translator Geoffrey Brock offers a personal anthology that conveys the wide-eyed spirit and formal beauty of the originals.
