Italo Calvino, Sex Memos for the Next Millennium

At the time of his death in 1985, Calvino was preparing to give the Norton Lectures at Harvard; this volume collects the texts completed at the time of his death, which are delightful, penetrating examinations of the literary experience. They focus on "things that only literature can give us,'' on "certain qualities, or peculiarities of literature that are very close to my heart'': lightness, quickness, exactitude, visibility, multiplicity. (The final lecture, on consistency, has not been found and assumed to have never been written.) Calvino ranges widely in classical and modern European literature to illustrate his themes, but his reflections are perhaps most revealing as commentaries on his own work, where the search for lightness is "a reaction to the weight of living,'' fantasy occupies a central place, and multiple possibilities are worked out in specific detail.

Back Cover:

Six Memos for the Next Millennium is the text to a series of lectures which became an obsession for Italo Calvino in the last years of his life. Drawing on the works of Lucretius, Ovid, Boccaccio, Flaubert, Kundera, Perec and many more, he pinpoints the universal laws and indispensable literary values future generations might cherish - lightness, quickness, exactitude, visibility and multiplicity.

'Calvino will continue to glitter, this strange, lonely prospector in the universe of words, well into the next millennium and after, a master in the empire of the imagination'

Ian Thomson, Independent on Sunday

'As commentary on fiction's strategies and possibilities, the book is alive with stimulating suggestivity... exhilarating and poignant' Peter Kemp, Sunday Times
