Considered one of the greatest Italian intellectuals of the 20th century, the prose writer, poet, translator, editor and critic Cesare Pavese calls his last and, according to him, a summary book, "The Moon Behind the Bonfires", his "divine comedy", and indeed, it is the writer's best novel, his poetics. It is named as the pinnacle and masterpiece of Italian literature.
I've had this book in my head for 16 years, I've always had it in me, and now it's time to write it, he said, dedicating it to his latest love, the American actress and model, Constance Dowling. The book tells us about a man who returned from America to find his roots and thus himself, where he became rich, but found it difficult to find himself, where everyone is rootless like him, cut off from his roots, a "bastard", where no one knows the story of his ancestors. "What blood is in my veins", "What was I before I was born", these are the questions that bother the hero.
The divide between the intellectual and the real, alienation from the mythical and ancestral rural worlds, prison, exile, escape from political responsibility and suffering because of it, all come together in the novel and reflect a clearly imprinted pilgrimage of an autobiographical nature to the places of the writer's childhood memories. "The village is necessary, you have to have it, if only to get the taste of leaving there. The village means that you are not alone, that you know that in the people, in the plants, in the land, something is yours and even if you were not there, it is still there and waiting for you."
