End to the torment: A memory of Ezra Pound is the personal newspaper that the poet imagista Hilda Doolittle (H.D.) wrote in 1958 when she was interned in Switzerland recovering from a fall. There she was persuaded by her doctor Erich Heydt and her friend Norman Holmes Pearson to write down, once and for all, her memoirs about Ezra Pound, dating back to 1905, when she began her studies at Bryn Mawr and he studied at the University of Pennsylvania. They were engaged at some point, and what started as a brief romance turned into a lifelong friendship and deep collaboration on a poetic level. This book, a mixture of personal memory and objective documentation, maintains a permanent resonance between the past and the present. Throughout this remembrance, the conviction that H.D. He had that his life and that of Pound's were irrevocably, even symbolically, intertwined since those young days when they walked together in the woods of Pennsylvania and he wrote poems reminiscent of William Morris, Rossetti, Swinburne, and Chaucer. Twenty-five of these poems make up the plaque that Pound called The Book of Hilda, which is included here as an epilogue.
