Hunting narrative

       COLLECTION OF VENATORY NARRATIVE The great classics and the new voices of Italian hunting literature. Novels and short stories. Pages of life and adventure, of reality and imagination. A lonely man in the woods«Luigi Ugolini's writing once again suggests to the Natural Man, or to the man created to understand the intangible codes of Nature, to establish an inviolable link with the environment of his life.  The Poet and the Hunter Two glances, that of a poet devoted to hunting and that of a hunter condemned to poetry, pass the baton in observing the magic, the meaning and the truth of the hunting passion.  The Hunter of the HillsPublished for the first time in 1978, this precious collection of short stories by the Florentine writer who died in 2006 now returns.  Memories of hunting In Maremma and in the Agro Romano A life spent hunting, that of the Marquis Franco Sacchetti, who still at the age of eighty, with a gun on his shoulder and dogs at his side, went around his lands in search of quail and woodcock, talking with farmers and fishermen, playing cards with elders and prelates. The Borgovecchio treasureThe Borgovecchio treasure is a timeless story, a clock that works only through the rhythm of an all-consuming hunting passion. A centripetal passion that calls around itself the events of an entire community made up of men and animals against the backdrop of a wild and hostile nature.  The tail of the Comet In Zanesi's writing the game of memory is always strong. Which generates old yellowed films, noisy with life or muffled silences. The memory of his father in the war, a nocturnal anguish, the gunsmith Tosi Flashes of the HuntEighty years of hunting in fifty stories. This is the challenge taken up by Adelio Ponce de Leon and, as usual, won. Indeed, overwhelmed. That he speaks of his first adolescent experiences with a toy rifle, of a kudu safari emulating and surpassing Hemingway, of the spasmodic waiting for the snipe to "snip", it seems to be there, with him. Beautiful wandering life «Everything in life passes quickly like birds», writes without nostalgia, but as an exhortation Eugenio Barisoni, ending his stories. And here he goes, with the quick stride of the walker, from fishing to hunting to amorous seduction.
