Description
Introduction · · · · · ·
Wang Xiaobo, Su Tong, Acheng and Zhi'an are his loyal fans
Zhu Tianwen and Tang Nuo are Calvino's unremitting promoters
Liang Wendao said he had been preparing to talk about Calvino, but he was not ready yet
The authoritative edition is a comprehensive revision of the 2006 single volume translation, with additional important information such as prefaces, postscripts, and annotations to each of Calvino's works
New binding by a well-known designer, hardcover double cover design, gold-stamped spine, and original line drawings on the cover, giving each work a literary personality
This book is the first to collect all of Calvino's cosmic stories since 1964 in one book. It also plays an interesting role in making the difficult concepts of modern science easy and visible, thus establishing a literary genre that is closer to the myth of the origin of the universe than to science fiction.
About the Author
The most influential contemporary Italian writer in the world. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1985, but missed the prize due to his sudden death that year. However, he and his works have already had a huge impact on the Italian and even world literary circles.
Calvino has been engaged in literary creation for 40 years, and has been trying to use various methods to express the life and soul of contemporary people. His works integrate realism, surrealism and postmodernism, and construct unimaginable stories with rich fairy tale meanings with rich methods and peculiar angles. They are highly praised by contemporary writers and have a profound impact on them. The trilogy "Our Ancestors", "The Castle of Crossed Fates" and "Palomar" have reached amazing artistic heights and ideological depths. "Italian Fairy Tales" has preserved the original appearance of Italian folk oral stories to the greatest extent, and has both artistic and academic values. It is a rare work that reproduces the deep accumulation of Italy's "national memory". "American Lectures" is a systematic review and theoretical summary and elaboration of Calvino's rich experience in nearly 40 years of novel creation practice. His works reflect the times in a unique way and even transcend the times.
