Extra info
Three impressions in one poem. Autobiographical outline of an epoch in which wounds from the Second World War, inflicted on the previous generation, obstruct a normal family life. In spite of the best intentions, the tragedy is unavoidable; what remains is the hope that things will change for the better.
