1. Ossi Di Seppia
A modernist collection of spare, image-driven poems that map a bleak Mediterranean landscape of sea, rocks and cuttlefish bones to explore solitude, cultural decay and the failure of grand narratives; through sharply observed, often ironic fragments — lemons, cliffs, empty harbors, and washed-up objects — the speaker confronts the difficulty of finding certainties or consolation, testing language itself as a fragile means of survival and memory in a world of silence and exile.
