    INTRO to ROGEREIDE

    The sequence of four dates (: 28/06/2014, 10/07/2014, 29/01/2017, 16/07/2017 ) draws the “effects” that the “PLAYS” of the Hero of Basel, has provoked into the author and eternalizes some prodigious moments of the ROGERIAN EPIC. (*) Please note that the poem “ FEDERER OR NOT TO BE ”, which is part of the present work, is also part of the text entitled “KAOSFEDERER”.

    INDEX:

    HOW CAN YOU THINK TO FIND AN INDEX IN A BOOK THAT HAS “KAOS” IN ITS TITLE? … WHICH “KAOS” HAS AN INDEEEEEX ? ! In fact, if FEDERER has caused the KAOS , you will never have an index. Actually, FEDERER didn’t cause the KAOS :

    Federer is kaos

    ***

    … but, I am stubborn, so, I can try to make an hypothesis about the INDEX OF KAOS…

    So it went:

    all started in “ALTAQUOTA” when, suddendly, I felt “ECSTASY TENNIS ECSTASY” and on “1st NOVEMBER (2015) – ALL SAINTS - better, A SAINT FOR ALL”, I had the opportunity to observe “ROGER “DE – LUX” “ and, to avoid being blinded, I tried to identify ”THE DIFFERENCES AMONG THE FABER FOUR OR “THE AESTHETIC SIDE OF LIFE“, then someone told me: “TASTE THE DIFFERENCE” even, better:… I WAS WONDERING IF YOU HAVE EVER TASTED TAGLIOLINE ALLA GRANSEOLA, ACCOMPANIED BY A COOL CUP OF KRUG…”.

    And it was so that I started to think “FEDERER OR NOT TO BE” and, since then, all the rest became “Unbearable”, giving to myself the proof that, by then, I definitively got into the “KAOSFEDERER”.

    FEDERER’S ARPEGGI

    The book is composed of seven poems inspired by the way of interpreting and expressing Tennis of the “PHENOMENON FEDERER” and by emotions the “GESTURE of FEDERER” excite in author’s mind. Poems are supported by eight images being integrant part of the book reproducing paintings created by the author himself. The work is introduced by an epigraph, apparently commemorative of the olympic-theme, titled OLYMPIC GAMES “LONDON SMOKE”, followed by five passages that, in tennis jergon, could be defined “short passes”, each, in its way, evocative of “FEDERER’S PLAY”: Kamoòonnn..., an emotional state; “UNSTABLE EQUILIBRIUM…”, flowing and music cue; EUREKA [-KAMON-], a sarcasm; SYNTHESIS, hymn to gesture; THE DUEL, a mere meditation; To conclude the work there is a summa of sentences expressed by the Champion, during his career, that, for their meaning and poetic, have been collected under the title “WORDS OF GOLD”.
