Description

Gabriele D'Annunzio's The Flame is a semi-autobiographical novel that explores the end of his relationship with actress Eleonora Dusa. Set against the backdrop of late 19th-century Venice, the book delves into themes of art, philosophy, and the changing cultural landscape of Italy. Inspired by the works of Friedrich Nietzsche and Walter Pater, The Flame is a meditation on the human experience, as its protagonist Stelio Effrena grapples with his muse and the world around him. With its masterful use of language and nuanced portrayal of 19th-century Venice, this novel has attracted praise for its thought-provoking exploration of life's big questions. This edition of The Flame is a reimagining of Gabriele D'Annunzio's classic work, made possible by Mint Editions' commitment to sustainability and innovation.
