Pound's Silence

By Alain Elkann

As Mirella Serri stated in tuttolibri, la Stampa, "The story ends with a clever surprise by the would-be biographer. Rightly, we are used to separating political orientation and artistic production. This applies, however, to literary criticism. Nonetheless, in the creative space of a novel Elkann allows himself the freedom that those who work with the imagination can afford. And so, he inflicts on Pound an exemplary punishment for his anti-Semitism, for his compromise with Nazism and fascism. A punishment that we certainly do not reveal what it is."
