Description:
Manchester: Carcanet Press, 1988. Originally published in Italian in 1903. Translation, introduction and glossary by J. G. Nichols. Cover design: Stephen Raw. Typeset in Palatino. Halcyon is a carefully organized sequence of 88 lyrics, that must be read as a whole: as an idyll which does not exclude violence and savagery, 'sometimes serene / as the firmament, / as hot as the hot vein / of the adolescent...' The scene is set in the summer in that part of Tuscany which lies between Florence and the Tyrrhenian Sea, where d'Annunzio spent some time with Eleonora Duse. 263 pag. . 1st edition. Paperback. Good copy.. 21,5cmx13,5cm.
