    E Altre Poesie

    This collection presents dense Baroque poetry characterized by ornate, highly allusive language and intricate syntax; through vivid natural imagery and classical mythology it stages solitary journeys and introspective wanderings that probe time, love, mortality, and decay, producing sensuous, musical, and intellectually challenging verse that rewards careful, repeated reading.
