EL Masters Spoon River anthology brings to life with great clarity of expression, the characters of a city \u200b\u200bof ghosts that seem to now lie quiet behind the tombstones of a cemetery lawn of the Midwest. Each tells his story and gives voice to the intrigue, hypocrisy and the torment of a life in conformity and repressed habits. The result is an unforgettable indictment of the American lifestyle provincial and puritanical tone that has the raw edge of a voice, that delivery time. been years since I heard about this anthology without ever I decide to read it. Then a few days ago, in the car, I listened for the umpteenth time two songs De André, "They sleep on the Hill" and "A judge," both inspired (so like many others) to this collection.
What can I say? The author is simply brilliant. Portrays in these essays, each dedicated to a "dead" Spoon River, the life of a country, with all its intrigue and its gossip, as well as the lifestyle of Puritan America in general.
Some make you smile (especially the "knock-response" between the real characters), while others think. I do not think you can say much more.
No note, read in the original language (because I did not have the translated version by Fernanda Pivano)
