Sinopsis

Aura Christi is a romantic in classic disguise, reminding one of Hölderlin, Rilke or Emily Dickinson, with a unique approach, at the same time mythical and mystical, to the eternal themes of poetry, giving precedence to the individual&rsquo,s inner and outer exile. While the metonymic postmodern fad is of no interest to her, she favors the hymnal and the solar with tragic twists, with divine praise and self-dissolution clashing, in a language purified of every redundancy, but not lacking in allusive complexity. áááááIn The God&rsquo,s Orbit, her most successful collection of poetry, Christi strikes the reader by her seraphic serenity, inspired, as she confesses, by Fra Angelico&rsquo,s mural paintings, hers is the attitude of someone who, after crossing a Dantean bolgia, (a hell',s ditch), after vanquishing the monsters of the Inferno, has left the drama of lucidity behind and reached a point in which reality, though still uncontrollable, has no more obscure niches. In naturally flowing lines, full of a sober inner musicality, that support a painful and clear vision of life, the often inimical gods slowly turn into God, the all-pacifying. The book is like a shout to the sky and divinity, forceful, convincing, defying today&rsquo,s society and pointing to where salvation might come from.
