Recensioni

Carosello siciliano di Lawrence Durrell

Dopo anni di preparativi Durrell visita finalmente la Sicilia, grazie alla proposta di un editore di scrivere un travel book sull'isola. L'occasione ha forzato l'autore sulla forma e sul registro da adottare per la stesura: il suo tour è confezionato ad arte, è banale e i riferimenti alle piccole vicende personali (gli occhiali smarriti, il prezzo dello scotch) infastidiscono piuttosto che donare spontaneità al libro.
