Winter Journey

Más información sobre el libro

Focusing on communal life and health during deceptive calm, Bertolucci's poems explore parallel illnesses: personal anxiety and societal afflictions in a consumer-driven world. His reflections reveal a persistent isolation, softened only by family and friendship. Avoiding populism and antagonism, he critiques the effects of Fascism while rejecting the florid rhetoric of the past. Bertolucci's work examines what remains possible when idealized beliefs are overshadowed by the present, contributing significantly to twentieth-century Italian poetry.
