I dispersi amori (Amazzoni)

Rate this book
"Questione di proporzioni, immagino, di calcoli sapienti in terra celeste. Ahimè, non ero che avrei dovuto fare il matematico."Sepolto in Francia nel 1939, nel cimitero di Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, e reso all’Irlanda solo una decina d’anni dopo, lo spirito di William Butler Yeats risorge sotto forma di spettro. Bruscamente ridestato a causa della comparsa di documenti diplomatici che gettano dubbi sul contenuto della bara riportata in patria, Yeats esce dalla tomba per raccontare il suo tormentato amore con Maud Gonne, una storia legata all’indipendenza irlandese della quale entrambi furono protagonisti… Maylis Besserie torna con un nuovo palpitante romanzo sull’uomo che è stato forse il più grande poeta di lingua inglese.

If you have any interest in W. B. Yeats, Maude Gonne and her daughter Iseult, you might like this. If you can handle loads of Celtic Twilight mysticism, you might love it. If you’re intrigued by what is actually buried in the poet’s grave, you’ll definitely love it. Apart from the intriguing activities of ’the Scattered’, a French group with a personal interest in what lies in Drumcliffe churchyard, I enjoyed it in an on/off sort of way but I’m surprised at how memorable it’s proved to be. Caveat: the grisly graveyard details are not for the squeamish
