reviewed Shining Eyes, Cruel Fortune: The Lives and Loves of Italian Renaissance Women Poets on September 10, 2008 Shining Eyes, Cruel Fortune: The Lives and Loves of Italian Renaissance Women Poets
Come i gelati: che fatica finirlo.
A volte qualche cucchiaiata di buonumore, molti scorci della vita degli anni 40 - sono la parte piu' interessante; a volte spunti di riflessione, molto spesso pagine che vorrebbero essere leggère, ma sono lunghe, dettagliate, un po' noiose.
Sembra qualsi un diario di ricordi trasformato in romanzo, ma da uno che non li sa scrivere, i romanzi. Giudizio tranchant e me ne dolgo, perchè la persona merita rispetto e la sua vita anche.
Piu' che un libro, avrei preferito sentirlo parlare, questo signore, per ore ed ore.
Non credo mi sarei annoiato neppure per un minuto.
