Paperback. Condition: New. Archipelago is a bilingual selection of poems by the leading Italian poet Antonella Anedda drawn from five collections she has published in Italy. Her poetry has a searing, disruptive quality, an honesty that is hard won. Her words have the air of breaking the silence reluctantly, and they keep the silence with them. This stringent, ferrous element sets her at odds with the eloquence and lyricism characteristic of the Italian poetic tradition, and may owe something to an alternative nationality, a different landscape. Though born in Rome, she comes from a Sardinian family and has passed a great deal of her life between the capital and a small island, La Maddalena, off the coast of Sardinia, and the languages she was brought up hearing were Logudorese, Catalan from Alghero, and Corsican French mixed with the dialect of La Maddalena - and of late she has found herself also writing a number of poems in Logudorese. While her poems have a geographical sweep, there is also an insistence on domestic detail - balconies, crockery, sewing, cooking: elements often considered too humble to warrant poetic attention. But even here they are often set against a backdrop of war and insecurity, and a poem in these surroundings, such as her 'Kitchen', is as likely to be the site of a haunting. Her first book, Winter Residences, already posited an elsewhere, that of St Petersburg, and an elective affinity with another culture. With time, and with the emergence of her next four books of poetry, this sense of apartness has increased, as has the force and particularity of her language - and has made her, along with Valerio Magrelli, one of the most valued and original poets of her generation.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Poems between natural and human history, private life and death, and about the crises of our century, from an acclaimed Italian poet.Poems between natural and human history, private life and death, and about the crises of our century, from an acclaimed Italian poet.Tacitus, the brooding historian of the Roman Empire, supplies the title of Antonella Anedda's Historiae, in which she grapples with a legacy of Mediterranean displacement and violence that stretches from antiquity to the present day. Anedda writes about the aftermath of centuries of colonization, about the ongoing European immigration crisis, and about the wild Sardinian archipelago of La Maddalena and the teeming Roman neighborhood of Trastevere-places between which she has divided her life-in a wonderfully various collection where poems of community frame poems of private life, among them a moving elegy for her mother. With wit, insight, and economy, Anedda reminds us that history is plural and that our perspectives, too, are constituted by pluralities-by events both present and past, both world-shaking and exquisitely mundane.This bilingual edition includes the original Italian versions of each poem.

Paperback. Condition: New. Bowl of ashes. In the emptiness that separates the ferry ropes without sailsthe groove that divides the flag and holdsits salt-encrusted pole without-the-river you count ringsin chains holding to the wharf. Emerging from the Winter Sea is a wide-ranging collection of verse that brings together poems from across Antonella Anedda's career, showcasing the full depth and breadth of one of the most celebrated Italian poets working today. The concerns of Anedda's work-family, art, history, war-are approached with a deep sense of historicism. Her Italian is fresh, evolving, tied to though straying from local dialects and the lineage of Latin; it is clear in its communicative power yet elemental in that simple language only seems so. In poems of domestic interiors, lines that succinctly capture great works of visual art, and verse describing the great destruction wrought by nations at war, Anedda emerges as a sharp poetic chronicler of history as it is lived. The effect is one of startling intimacy, and of a close acquaintance with a voice of powerful authority.…
