Dal mio verziere : saggi di polemica e di critica

A lively mosaic of letters, essays and literary sketches, this volume opens with a warm tribute to a cherished confidante, turning a private correspondence into a broader meditation on art, memory and the restless spirit of the writer. The author weaves together critiques of contemporary poetry, sly observations on cultural trends, and heartfelt reflections on friendships that have shaped her intellectual path, all rendered in a voice that feels both intimate and provocatively honest. Readers are invited to wander through the “verziere” of her mind, where each page records the mood of a particular day, the view from a window, and the lingering echo of a debate that began as a playful quarrel.

Beyond the personal epistles, the collection offers sharp, witty polemics against the literary fashions of the time, revealing the author’s fierce commitment to authenticity and her distrust of empty conventions. The prose balances tenderness with incisive critique, creating a resonant portrait of a woman who writes, reads, and thinks with unyielding vigor, while still honoring the fragile bonds that sustain her creative life.
