Book Synopsis
An extraordinary debut taking Audrey Hepburn as the Muse for a series of meditations on the seductions of screen and stage. Campana''s poems are haunted by Hepburn, her leading men and a fascinating array of literary spectres - Catullus, Petrarch, Chaucer, Spencer, Foucault and Barthes. His writing blurs surfaces of prose and poetry, mingling the two until each wears the other''s face. This is startling writing, fine and beautifully complex.
