«Neve» is the novel by Maxence Fermine, published by Bompiani in paperback (112 pages, in Italian).
In late 19th-century Japan, Yuko leaves his family to become a poet, but his haikus about snow lack color. He turns to Saseki, an elderly blind poet who tells him of his love for Neve, a young European woman lost in the ice, and teaches him the strength and power of love. A fable about poetry, love and finding one's own voice.
The Italian edition, published on November 24, 1999, includes a translation by Sergio Claudio Perroni and belongs to the Assaggi di narrativa collection.
For readers of contemporary fiction who appreciate short stories with a poetic atmosphere and a fable-like tone.
