A Selection From the Poems of Giosuè Carducci   Giosuè Carducci
Winner of the 1906 Nobel Prize in Literature. Highly structured poems that feel contorted by Emily Tribe’s valiant attempt to maintain the structure and rhyme in translation. Never really got into any of them. As I’ve said before, Frost was correct. Too bad.
