About This Book

Pare l'abbrivio di una favola. Si rivelerà una tragedia. Il cantastorie è William Butler Yeats, poeta ineluttabile, Nobel per la letteratura nel 1923. "Mi trovavo a Maiorca, quando mia moglie annunciò l'arrivo di Margot Ruddock… Di ricercata bellezza nel viso e nei lineamenti, era venuta a Londra sperando di conquistare il palcoscenico della capitale…". A Maiorca, insieme al maestro spirituale Shri Purhoit Swami, Yeats traduceva le Upanishad. Doveva compiere settant'anni. Neppure trentenne, Margot Ruddock irrompe nella vita di Yeats come una folgore. Estremo esempio dell'estatica, moderna menade, pura e folle, Margot ispira a Yeats alcune delle poesie più vertiginose; e scrive, nel delirio d'amore. Madre, moglie, adultera e da tutti tradita, Margot Ruddock morirà troppo giovane, nel 1951, dopo un calvario in diversi ospedali psichiatrici. Il mondo non perdona la veggente dalla bellezza inquieta. Nel 1937, sotto gli auspici di Yeats, Margot pubblica il suo unico libro in versi, The Lemon Tree. Un libro di spaventosa purezza, presto svanito dal convegno editoriale, che qui risorge in prima traduzione italiana. In appendice, una selezione dall'epistolario con W.B. Yeats.
