Abstract
Leonardo Sciascia�s poetic universe is founded on the conviction that literature is the realm where truth happens. Although intimately associated with delight, literary writing is not �in the Sicilian�s writer view� an erudite recreation of his own knowledge, nor a closed refuge from a comprehensive look at reality. On the contrary, Sciascia tries to find a meaning in that reality by analyzing the coincidences and connections among facts and events, in light of his personal literary background.
