A Year of Mourning

A Year of Mourning

Francesco Petrarca
4/5 ( ratings)
Poetry. Translated by Lee Harlin Bahan. Lee Harlin Bahan delves into the crowded field of Petrarch translations and delivers a classical offering with a postmodern- cool facelift. A YEAR OF MOURNING is daring, quirky, and playful, but with traditional trimmings. The expected classical and Biblical references abound, but also vivid allusions to pop culture and the contemporary social scene, including Madonna, Robert Frost, rock 'n' roll, even the Walnettos caramel- walnut candy. This is the Petrarch you know alongside the Petrarch you've never experienced before. This is a Petrarch translation not to be missed.
