'Il grumo che resta sui polpastrellui': Resisting angels in the poetry of Eugenio Montale

On the other hand the "second Montale" is more preoccupied with the poetic observation of the surrounding reality: his gaze lowers itself to reality itself, seen as the "palta" where the poetic-ontological search identifies with a series of little "truths".
