Celebrating Brock's Italian Poetry Anthology

Nightbird Books begins the poetry month by celebrating the publication of The FSG Book of Twentieth-Century Italian Poetry: An Anthology with a reading by Geoff Brock (editor), and contributing translators John DuVal and Van Brock on Saturday April 7 at 7 PM.

This major new anthology offers a broad survey of modern Italian poetry, including such major figures as Montale, Ungaretti, and Quasimodo, as well as more contemporary poets such as Patrizia Valduga and Valerio Magrelli.
