L'allegria

L'allegria (Joy/Happiness or better, Merriness) is a collection of poems published by Giuseppe Ungaretti in 1931. It was an expanded version of a 1919 collection Allegria di naufragi (merriness of the castaways). Many of the poems were written in reaction to Ungaretti's experience as a soldier of World War I.

Poems from L'allegria have been translated by Charles Tomlinson.
