Revue de presse :

"The curious quirks that would shape Calvino's eccentric orbit can be described, along with the exuberant talent and sense of magic that would make that orbit a flaming one." -Los Angeles Times

"With seventeen books in print, Italo Calvino enjoys a privilege that few foreign writers ever achieve here: virtually all his works can be read in English... Calvino's ready availability is of course a sign (and support) of his canonical status in world literature, the capacity of his fiction to be significant in many different cultures... Tim Park's translation is perfectly in tune with the various dialects and discourses that Calvino assimilated during his career. By the '80s his supple Italian was tossing off polylingual arpeggios, technical jargons, nonce words... More than accurate and readable [Park's] version is inventive." -The New York Times Book Review

"Numbers in the Dark is a glorious grab bag... with gems from every phase in Calvino's career." - San Francisco Sunday Examiner & Chronicle Book Review

"Warmly and expertly translated by Tim Parks, a gifted writer himself." -Esquire

Biographie de l'auteur :

Italo Calvino, one of Italy's finest postwar writers, has delighted readers around the world with his deceptively simple, fable-like stories. He was born in Cuba in 1923 and raised in San Remo, Italy; he fought for the Italian Resistance from 1943-45. He died in Siena in 1985.Tim Parks was born in Manchester in 1954, studied at Cambridge and Harvard, and moved to Italy in 1980, where he lectures on literary translation in Milan. His translations from the Italian include works by Alberto Moravia, Italo Calvino, Roberto Calasso and Antonio Tabucchi. His account of provincial life in Italy, Italian Neighbours, was an international bestseller.
