Italo Calvino as Author/Game-master in If on a winter's night a traveler In an interview conducted in January 1978, one year before the publication of his novel If on a winter's night a traveler Iown ), Italo Calvino responded to a question about his future writing plans with these words: "What I keep open is fiction, a storytelling that is lively and inventive, as well as the more reflective kind of writing in which narrative and essay become one" (Calvino, Hermit in Paris 190). Calvino created this very type of fiction in Iown Iown we cannot ignore the sections of the novel that deal with aspects of writing, authorship, and publishing in ways that unabashedly reflect Calvino's own opinions and feelings. By speaking his opinions through his characters (who we as readers naturally identify with) Calvino is persuading us to identify with him, and is therefore able to maintain his position of control and authority. Thus, through the playful use of metafiction Calvino can achieve the creation of a novel that is both self-consciously reflective and "lively and inventive." Iown The game strategy emerges clearly [. . .] by creating suspense the author captures our interest, but he keeps deferring the consummation of our curiosity [. . .] In Calvino's game we, the readers, risk frustration: letting ourselves be dragged into the story, we are bound to suffer from aroused and dissatisfied curiosity. (Fink 3)

35. Swarthmore College Invisible Cities Etext excerpts from Calvino s most famous work. http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/~pwillen1/lit/citysum.htm

selections from... Thin Cities 3 Whether Armilla is like this because it is unfinished or because it has been demolished, whether the cause is some enchantment or only a whim, I do not know. The fact remains that it has no walls, no ceilings, no floors: it has nothing that makes it seem a city except the water pipes that rise vertically where the houses should be and spread out horizontally where the floors should be: a forest of pipes that end in taps, shouwers, spouts, overflows. Against the sky a lavabo's white stands out, or a bathtub, or some other porcelain, like late fruit still hanging from the boughs. You would think that the plumbers had finished their job and gone away before the bricklayers arrived; or else their hydraulic systems, indestructable, had survived a catastrophe, an earthquake, or the corrosion of termites. Abandoned before or after it was inhabited, Armilla cannot be called deserted. At any hour, raising your eyes among the pipes, you are likely to glimpse a young woman, or many young women, slender, not tall of stature, luxuriating in the bathtubs or arching their backs under the showers suspended in the void, washing or drying or perfuming themselves, or combing their long hair at a mirror. In the sun, the threads of water fanning from the showers glisten, the jets of the taps, the spurts, the splases, the sponges' suds. I have come to this explaination: the streams of water channeled in the pipes of Armilla have remained in th posession of nymphs and naiads. Accustomed to traveling along underground veins, they found it easy to enter the new aquatic realm, to burst from multiple fountains, to find new mirrors, new games, new ways of enjoying the water. Their invasion may have driven out the human beings, or Armilla may have been built by humans as a votive offering to win the favor of the nymphs, offended at the misuse of the waters. In any case, now they seem content, these maidens: in the morning you hear them singing.

36. Swarthmore The Soft Moon Includes an excerpt from the author s book, T Zero. http://www.sccs.swarthmore.edu/~pwillen1/lit/moon.htm

The Soft Moon , taken from the book t zero As fast as the traffic allowed, I went through the tunnel, drove toward the Observatory. Sibyl was there, her eye glued to the telescope. As a rule she didn't like me to visit her during working hours, and the moment she saw me would make a vexed face; but not that evening: she didn't even look up, it was obvious she was expecting my visit. "Have you seen it?" would have been a stupid question, but I had to bite my tongue to keep from asking it, I was so impatient to know what she thought about it all. "Yes, the planet Moon has come closer still," Sibyl said, before I had asked her anything, " the phenomen was foreseen." I felt a bit relieved. "Do you foresee that it'll move away again?" I asked. Sibyl still had one eyelid half closed, peering into the telescope. "No," she said, "it won't move away any more." I didn't understand. "You mean that the Earth and the Moon have become twin planets?" "I mean the Moon isn't a planet any more and the Earth has a Moon." Sibyl had a casual way of dismissing matters; it irritated me every time she did it. "What kind of thinking is that?" I complained. "one planet's just as much a planet as the others, isn't it?"

38. Italo Calvino Excerpt Passage from If on a winter s night a traveller. http://www-control.eng.cam.ac.uk/hu/Calvino.html

Italo Calvino Excerpt From "If on a winter's night a traveller" (one of Haig's favourites) ... I'm speaking to you two, a fairly unrecognisable tangle under the rumpled sheet. Maybe afterward you will go your separate ways and the story will again have to shift gears painfully, to alternate between the feminine tu voi , a second person plural, you are two tu s, more separate and circumscribed than before. (This is already true now, when you are still occupied, each with the other's presence, in an exclusive fashion. Imagine how it will be in a little while, when ghosts that do not meet will frequent your minds, accompanying the encounters of your bodies tested by habit.) Ludmilla, now you are being read. Your body is being subjected to a systematic reading, through channels of tactile information, visual, olfactory, and not without some intervention of the taste buds. Hearing also has its role, alert to your gasps and your trills. It is not only the body that is, in you, the object of raeding: the body matters insofar as it is part of a complex of elaborate elements, not all visible and not all present, but manifested in visible and present events: the clouding of your eyes, your laughing, the words you speak, your way of gathering and spreading your hair, your initiatives and your reticences, and all the signs that are on the frontier between you and usage and habits and memory and prehistory and fashion, all codes, all the poor alphabets by which one human being believes at certain moments that he is reading another human being.
