So many layers. Powerful images: Nemega, a bunker face, embrasures instead of eyes and mouth - Cobra hated dogs, hood on his head seemed a swearing nun at each barking - hounding wind - sinking fog. Fenoglio brave to write a novel about partisans when everybody else wrote real memories; even braver 'cause he did it through a love triangle. A double civil war. The final frantic getaway towards life or seeked death? Milton a modern Don Quixote.
