Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A widely revered collection from the Nobel prize-winning poet, publishing in Penguin Modern Classics for the first timeThis startlingly original reworking of the Persephone myth takes us to the icy shores of Averno, the crater lake regarded by the ancient Romans as the entrance to the underworld. Here, the consolations of rebirth and renewal are eclipsed by the immediacy of loss - by a mother's possessive grief, an abducted girl's equivocal memories, a farmer's lament for a lost harvest. This chorus offers neither comfort nor solace but deepened understanding, its sorrow textured by the poet's luminous wit. Together, the poems of Averno swell to a staggeringly powerful lamentation, through which the reader glimpses the ecstasy of the inevitable, only to find it resisted by the insistent, impersonal presence of the Earth. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780241526002
