In “Il Nome Proprio”, Elena Gaiardoni’s latest work, we find ourselves in front of a delicate symphony of poems that move nimbly between the moonlight and the hottest issues of current affairs. The softcover, published on January 11, 2024, envelops a collection that speaks to the heart and conscience.
Elena Gaiardoni invites us on a journey through her poems which, animated by the moon, seem to recall its nocturnal spell, drawing inspiration from that beam of light so dear to poets of every era. The moon, present and distant, accompanies readers in the various phases of love, understood as sharing, support and a shared journey through the uncertainties of life.
Gaiardoni touches deep chords, inviting you to live life with your partner in an intimacy that includes joy and suffering. The author does not just sing about romantic love, but she expands her vision to a broader harmony and collaboration that should animate human relationships.
Gaiardoni’s message is clear and powerful, a call to action against hatred and violence, issues that unfortunately emerge with worrying frequency in society. The reference to the red shoes, symbol of the fight against feminicide, reveals a depth that goes beyond the poetic, attesting to the author’s civil commitment.
The preface by Alessandro Quasimodo adds value to an already rich collection, offering a further level of reading and context. “Il Nome Proper” is a hymn to the nocturnal beauty that illuminates the darkness and a tool for reflection that looks with a critical and hopeful eye towards the future.
In conclusion, “Il Nome Proper” is a literary treasure by Elena Gaiardoni who proves herself capable of merging poetic beauty with acute social observation, creating a current and timeless work that deserves to be read and meditated on.
