Cristina Campo was a poetess and in this wonderful text, 'La tigre Assenza', which appeared first in the collection 'Poesie sparse' and then in the posthumous volume with the same title La Tigre Assenza, published in 1991 by her dear literary friend Margherita Pieracci, she finds a daring solution to the heartbreak caused by the absence of her loved ones. In a way, Cristina takes care of her sorrow due to her parents' absence, while avoiding the abused theme of memory and remembrance, literary topos par excellence in these cases.
