The peculiarity of Dino Buzzati’s allegory is shown through the analysis of his first three narrative texts, the novels Bàrnabo delle montagne, Il segreto del Bosco Vecchio and Il deserto dei Tartari. By means of a number of original solutions, the author appears to be deeply modern in his use of the allegorical procedures. That which prevails in his texts, characterised by the frequent recurrence of liminar spaces such as the mountain and the desert, is a sense of estrangement and a tension toward something unknown, which escapes any univocal meaning and constitutes the fascinating poetic character of the writer.

Abstract
The peculiarity of Dino Buzzati’s allegory is shown through the analysis of his first three narrative texts, the novels Bàrnabo delle montagne, Il segreto del Bosco Vecchio and Il deserto dei Tartari. By means of a number of original solutions, the author appears to be deeply modern in his use of the allegorical procedures. That which prevails in his texts, characterised by the frequent recurrence of liminar spaces such as the mountain and the desert, is a sense of estrangement and a tension toward something unknown, which escapes any univocal meaning and constitutes the fascinating poetic character of the writer.
