Fifty-five authors, many still living and working there, are represented from a wide variety of regions, some writing in Sicilian and others writing primarily in Italian. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAna Ilievska and Pietro Russo have selected the poets and characteristic examples of their work. The translations from Italian to English by Ana Ilievska are presented on facing pages. Poems in Sicilian include an Italian version below the Sicilian text. In his introduction to the volume, Antonio Sichera, professor of Contemporary Italian Literature at the University of Catania, asks \"whether there really is such a category as contemporary Sicilian poetry.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe editors answer this question affirmatively. The poets in this anthology share a flow of verse that moves through lyrical eruptions and layers of silence. Under these, if one listens well, one can sense an energy that breaks into the fabric of everyday life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForeword, introduction, notes, appendices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMultilingual Sicilian\/Italian\/English poetry. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e492 pp. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ana Ilievska\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1599104393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781599104393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Italica Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/10\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 492\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 1.25d","brand":"Ana Ilievska","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44717480050943,"sku":"9781599104393","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8d76c5f4-53ec-4a85-af11-c5ba707474d7.jpg?v=1705688377","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/contemporary-sicilian-poetry-ana-ilievska-9781599104393","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
