Synopsis
Salvatore Quasimodo, the Sicilian poet who won the Nobel Prize in 1959 "for his poetry which with classical fire expresses the tragic experience of life in our time", died in 1968. `Debit and Credit' contains the twenty-two new poems from his last book, `Dare e avere' (1965), together with eleven complementary poems selected by Jack Bevan from his earlier books. These poems show Quasimodo at his best as he explores the complex emotions associated with memories of particular events and places, in lyric verse of grave and passionate eloquence. None of the poems have previously appeared in book form in England.
