场景是一家罗马酒吧，叙述者用令人发指的十四行诗讲述了哥伦布与西班牙官僚机构争夺物资和船只的斗争，冲击海洋的无尽风暴，航海者不可避免地欺骗当地人，以及哥伦布最终失去王室青睐。在怀疑和不耐烦的观众的几次打断和提示之后，叙述者谈到了他的故事的要点：天才有时会付出沉重的代价。美国诗人学会哈罗德·莫顿·兰登翻译奖获得者”
The scene is a Roman bar, where the narrator tells in outrageous sonnets of Columbus s battle with the Spanish bureaucracy for supplies and ships, of the endless storms that pound the ocean, of the voyagers inevitable swindling of the natives, and of Columbus s final fall from royal favor. After several interruptions and promptings by a skeptical and impatient audience, the narrator comes to the point of his yarn that genius will sometimes exact a heavy price. Winner of the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award from the Academy of American Poets"
