Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"The skillfully translated first English-language edition of Pusterla’s work spans landscapes, memories, dreams, wars, and the ordinariness of daily life, energetically rendering a voice of striking attention, one willing to notice near-constant juxtaposition. . . . Pusterla’s voice is a kindly light in the midst of darkness." * Publishers Weekly *
"As with Leopardi, in spite of the poet’s despair, it is the poetry that brings its own consolation. No doubt Pusterla would agree with W.H. Auden that, as a poet, all he has is a voice or, to quote his own beautifully cadenced and defiant words at the end of ‘Landscape’: ‘E le parole: nessuno adesso me le ruberà,’/ ‘And words: now no one will rob me of them.'"---David Cooke, The High Window
