Situated between the flat and misty Po Valley and the Mediterranean Sea, Liguria appears as a rainbow-shaped and mountainous island, extending from the Tuscan sandy shores of Versilia to the French Alps. Through a close reading of several modern and contemporary poets and novelists, the author illustrates the profound ambivalences and fragile beauty of this quintessential Mediterranean landscape.
