Marco Belpoliti. A new book explores Levi’s capacity to combine the cognitive power of science with religion’s forces of enchantment and ritual. Primo Levi magico (A Magical Primo Levi, Carocci, 2024) by Robert Gordon, Professor of Italian Studies at Cambridge, is a case in point; a book of little more than 100 pages that contains some important new reflections on this writer who is among the most widely read and admired of our time.
