Re: Define Ligottian/Ligottiesque
The following fragment by modernist poet Guiseppe Ungaretti seems to me to capture a quality authentically Ligottian:
Already autumnal dryness
Has sunk into my bones,
But, lengthening from shadow,
A demented never-ending
Radiance arrives:
Hidden torment of the sunken
Twilight...
-- from "Day by Day" (trans. Andrew Frisardi)
A demented never-ending radiance.
