From the Publisher: Stephen Massimilla won the Grolier Poetry Prize for his sonnet sequence Later on Aiaiai, followed by the Sonia Raiziss-Giop Series Bordighera Poetry Prize for Forty Floors From Yesterday. He has also received the Van Rensselaer Award in poetry from Columbia University, a prize from the Academy of American Poets, and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago Poetry Award. He teaches at Barnard College. "The surreal imagery in these poems is crafted with a deft hand and a sure ear. The author has put to fine use the strange emotional states wrung from the marriage of unexpected things, but this strangeness is never created for its own sake-to shock us-but instead to illuminate the darker corners of our longings. These are marvelous poems: Like fairy tales they conjure, bewitch, and cast inescapable spells"--Dorothy Barresi, American Book Award winner. Facing page Italian, translated into the Italian by Luigi Bonaffini.
