All my writings tend to be about memory and loss, but also about sense of place and the strong link between the body and the physical (including landscape, trees, etc.) and (L)language. Every text alludes in some way to italianità ... whether by the use of an Italian word that just doesn't have an English equivalent, or by the infusion into the middle of a "lyric" poem on the ideas of Gramsci, Eco, or Pasolini, or by meandering musings on classical painting and landscape. Crossing the borders between different generic territories, each is to some extent a hybrid of poetry and essay.
