Rosselli wrote much of the series in the mid 1960s after being hospitalized for a mental illness she suffered from for most of her life, and whose pain shapes her language and difficult vision. These explosive poems, a furious cacophonic crescendo of semantic and syntactic accumulations deeply admired by Pier Paolo Pasolini, place Rosselli among the greatest writers of her generation. ","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47129464504560,"sku":"9780811224895","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780811224895_p0.jpg?v=1763747344","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780811224895","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
