Andrea Zanzotto is widely considered Italy's most influential living poet. The first comprehensive collection in thirty years to translate this master European poet for an English-speaking audience, "The Selected Poetry and Prose of Andrea Zanzotto" includes the very best poems from fourteen of his major books of verse and a selection of thirteen essays that helps illuminate themes in his poetry as well as elucidate key theoretical underpinnings of his thought. Assembled with the collaboration of Zanzotto himself and featuring a critical introduction, thorough annotations, and a generous selection of photographs and art, this volume brings an Italian master to vivid life for American readers.
