Presentation of the book
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”.
