«Verso la cuna del mondo: Lettere dall'India» is an epistolary travel book by Guido Gozzano, published by Bompiani in paperback (254 pp., Italian).
The letters, written by Guido Gozzano between February and April 1912, recount a journey to India with visits to Bombay and Ceylon. The trip was primarily therapeutic: the author suffered from tuberculosis. These texts combine the traveller's chronicle, reflection on the East, and the personal gaze that would later shape his literature.
2008 edition edited by Roberto Carnero; the work was originally published in 1917 and belongs to the Tascabili collection (number 1074).
Work for those interested in travel literature and India, through the eyes of an early 20th-century Italian writer.
