Specialist Notes

FIRST EDITION highly sought after of the rarest volume of Eugenio Montale's production; the same author took part in the publication of the volume, printed in 150 copies, thanks to the “Antico Fattore” prize awarded to him for the poetry that gives the work its name by a jury of poets and writers who gathered at the Antico Fattore restaurant in Florence.
