Now, a new book, mainly in Italian, about Anna Bunston de Bary
has recently been published with details of Anna's life and some of her
poems: 'Anna Bunston de Bary Songs of
Lake Garda Poesie Ritrovate' co-written and edited by Eleonora Padovani and
Marco Faraoni with illustrations of scenes from the Italian lakes painted by
Monaco di Baviera Michael Zeno Diemer' from the postcard collection of Renzo
Trenti. Published by Raffaelli Editore, Milan. ISBN 978-88-6792-096-9.
Eleonora, who contacted me some time ago asking about Anna, has extensively researched Anna Bunston de Bary's
life and has also translated some of her poems into Italian with the original
text being opposite the translation, forming a parallel text. Included in the book are some of Anna's
translations of Italian poems into English.
The book is truly delightful and a must read for anyone interested in
Anna Bunston de Bary. I am currently
reading this book with great pleasure and cannot praise it highly enough. Eleonora
Padovani has taken a great deal of time and trouble in researching the life and
work of Anna Bunston de Bary.
'Anna Bunston de Bary Songs of Lake Garda Poesie Ritrovate' by Eleonora Padovani and Marco Faraoni, published by Raffaelli Editore, Milan. ISBN 978-88-6792-096-9.
