The number of things

Summary: "A unique collection in which Lanza del Vasto compiled the essential part of his poetic works. Enriched, over the years, with texts and commentaries, it represents much more than a literary work. In it, the author develops a vision of the world attentive to its harmonies, its correspondences, its spiritual and symbolic depth. Thus, the inaugural poem, 'Le Vitrail' (The Stained Glass Window), presents itself as a metaphysical meditation on the meaning of human existence. But the religious scope of this text and many others does not detract from the carnal sensibility with which Lanza celebrates the beauty of the female body, of trees, of hills under the sky... Several self-portrait poems ('Le Soliloque d'Uccello' (Uccello's Soliloquy), 'Portrait de Chrysogone' (Portrait of Chrysogone)) are rich in philosophical content."
