Ethnicity

Poetry. Joseph Tusiani's polycultural and polylingual experiences contribute to a poetry that has mediated over the years, in both his Italian and English poetry, the rhetoric extravagence of Italy and the linguistic economy of the United States -- Anthony Julian Tamburri. This selection of poems includes work from Gente Mia, a landmark in the literature of a people -- Bruno Arcudi. Edited with two essays by Paolo Giordano.
