Poems selected and translated by Marilyne Bertoncini. Afterword by Raphael Monticelli. "Reading and rereading Luca Ariano, you are astonished and moved. An unexpected emotion: that which arises suddenly from the simple unfolding of days, from a commonplace situation experienced a thousand times, from a landscape you thought you knew, from a memory nestled in a hollow of your mind, seeing, living, and reliving for the first time what you thought you had already read, already seen, already lived." Raphael Monticelli (excerpt from the afterword). Publication date: February 1, 2025. Order now. Press release.
