W.W. Norton., 2000 - Poetry - 220 pages
First published in Italy in 1971, SATURA is the fourth collection of poems by Nobel Prize winner Eugenio Montale (1896-1981). Here the poet experimented with dialogue, journalistic notation, aphorism, commentary, and half-strangled song, pressing Italian literary language into terrain it never before had touched. Montale's talent defines a new lyric art.
