Hardback. Etat : New. The Play of Waves is a collection of poems written over the period of five years by Malta's most distinguished poet, Immanuel Mifsud. It falls into six sections: the first consists of mainly lyrical poems; the second explores mental instability and the fluidity of the Self; the third is a sequence of travel poems; the fourth focuses on the dialectic of body-spirit; the fifth consists of poems about sex and sexuality; and the sixth and final section is a short cycle about Medusa. Throughout all six sections, the theme of 'waiting' runs as a leitmotiv - waiting at airports, at the psychiatric clinic, at railway stations, sex-workers waiting for clients, lonely people waiting for imaginary lovers.This is a powerful yet tender collection from a writer whose name may be familiar as winner of the European Union Prize for Literature in 2011 but whose unique poetic voice is little-known outside Malta.

Brossura. Etat : new. Traduzione di Virginia Monteforte.Valmadrera, 2025; br., pp. 224, cm 13x20.(Notturnali). «Appoggio i gomiti sulla scrivania, sorreggo il capo con la mano e li guardo, con i loro capelli spettinati, le bocche socchiuse, mentre respirano profondamente. Sul serio, l'amore è strano, strano come queste storie che, anche se sono stato io a scriverle, mi sembra ora di scorrere per la prima volta, come se non le avessi mai sentite.» «È ora. Per te è ora di andare a dormire, di lasciarti penetrare dalla notte, stordire, vincere. Morfeo ti porge il papavero. Un mazzo di papaveri. Non ti sei ancora addormentato?» È questo l'invito rivolto al lettore: abbandonarsi al sonno e alla narrazione come in un rito intimo e condiviso, nel quale ogni storia è un frammento di esistenza che affiora dal buio. Storie di passioni clandestine, attese interminabili, solitudini domestiche, di corpi desideranti e vulnerabili, di paesi immaginari e città reali, di camere d'albergo e cucine di provincia. Quando la notte apre gli occhi è un romanzo corale, onirico e poetico, che esplora il sonno e la notte come spazi liminali in cui emergono sogni, memorie, desideri, solitudini e ossessioni, e il confine tra realtà e immaginazione si dissolve. Un mosaico narrativo nel quale la scrittura rivendica il potere di custodire la memoria, tanto personale quanto collettiva. Libro.
