Guido Gozzano, a prominent figure of the Crepuscolari movement, is celebrated for his evocative poetry that captures themes of nature, melancholy, and nostalgia. Despite his early death at thirty-five, he left a lasting impact with his two acclaimed volumes, La via del rifugio and I colloqui. Additionally, Gozzano's lesser-known works include short stories and aesthetic prose that reflect a delicate style and tragic absurdism, influenced by literary greats like Poe and Maupassant.
