Within Love.
From the existential labyrinth to the storms of feeling, in a physicality that receives creation through the power of experience. The song rises from the roots of the self, branching out beyond the “you,” clear, conscious, welcoming, alive to the world.

Rhythm, intensity, intimacy, essentiality.

Anna Maria Farabbi — poet, narrator, essayist, translator. Feminist. Deeply committed to social engagement with the marginalized. She has published with Al3vie several essays, such as Il canto dell’altalena (2021), and works of poetry, including La via del poco (2022).

Singing the Magnificent Beast
anna maria farabbi

La magnifica bestia is the work which, together with Adlujé (2003) and Il segno della femmina (2004), completes the trilogy within which I sing my relationship with the “you,” concretely traversing the meaning of love.

Even after years I find the same passionate thematic urgencies and the immediacy of revealing my core identity: heretical, erotic, organic, feminist: to read with the lips and to write with the eyelids, truly learning—not metaphorically—from people in suffering; thanks to the loving relationship, to consciously feel the whole body and, at the same time, to have the ability to name it; to conceive and live love as a permanent inner formation, inclusive, sensual, sensorial, mystical, and even political, breaking through rhetoric and boundaries, including death.

Neologisms in language (soletudine), the presence of song in dialect (from the Umbrian Apennine area of the province of Perugia), and prose—here in the final self-portrait—still today constitute familiar paths of my poetry.
