Nevermore is an elegy for lost times and threatened things. It celebrates recollection and the "immortality of youth", and youth's passions: for natural history for the naive curiosity and lust of adolescent "love", for adventuresome escape, and for the elusive prize of poetry itself.

The focus of this large collection is Petrarch's lifelong love for the mysterious Laura, but the themes he treats are many and various. This verse translation of the whole of the "Canzoniere" has notes to suggest the many connections between the poems.
