About This Item
Milano: Riccardo Ricciardi, 1961. First edition. Small closed tear at top of front wrapper, few marks. 8vo, 164pp; wrappers. An excellent presentation copy, inscribed and signed by Gadda on the half title page to the German writer and publisher Hans Magnus Enzensberger, dated 1963, when Enzensberger was instrumental in bringing out a German translation of Gadda's La Cognizione del Dolore, providing an afterword. Gadda inscriptions are quite uncommon and this one has a meaningful association.
