阿弗尔诺是意大利南部的一个小火山口湖，被古罗马人视为地下世界的入口。路易斯·格鲁克(Louise Gluck)的第十部作品就是以这个地方命名的:在一片无法恢复到冬天的景色中，它是一道大门或通道，吸引着世界之间的来往，但同时又抗拒世界之间的和解。

《阿弗尔诺》是一首延伸的哀歌，它的长篇大论、躁动不安的诗，既没有传统的决心和安慰，也同样引人入胜;既没有野蛮、悲伤，也同样令人陶醉。

阿弗尔诺提供的不是一张到达或离开点的地图，而是一张我们所处位置的图表，一个令人痛苦、持久的现在。

《阿弗尔诺》是2006年国家图书奖入围作品。

Averno is a small crater lake in southern Italy, regarded by the ancient Romans as the entrance to the underworld. That place gives its name to Louise Glück's tenth collection: in a landscape turned irretrievably to winter, it is a gate or passageway that invites traffic between worlds while at the same time resisting their reconciliation. Averno is an extended lamentation, its long, restless poems no less spellbinding for being without conventional resoltution or consolation, no less ravishing for being savage, grief-stricken. What Averno provides is not a map to a point of arrival or departure, but a diagram of where we are, the harrowing, enduring present.

Averno is a 2006 National Book Award Finalist for Poetry.

Review

“Brilliant [poems of] complex, haunting power . . . Averno may be Glück's masterpiece. Certainly it demonstrates that she is writing at the peak of her powers.” ―Nicholas Christopher, The New York Times Book Review

“Few poets can shoulder the weight of myth the way Glück does . . . The poems brilliantly display a poet's insight, a mother's warmth, and a mortal's empathy. There is wry humor, too, and, amid much that is dark, there are fragments of hope.” ―The New Yorker
