Author: Maria Boro Translator: Danielle Pieratti Publisher: World Poetry Books (2025) Brimming with windows, screens, and high-rise glass, Maria Borio’s first English-language coll ection confronts the interpersonal crises of contemporary lives caught between two worlds—one ancient and abiding, the other rapid, digital, and increasingly diverse. Translator Danielle Pieratti captures the dissonance of Borio’s sharp lyricism and clipped rhythms, creating a contemporary English-language poetry that preserves the poet’s engagement with Italian modernisms. First published by World Poetry Books in 2022, this re-designed second edition (2025) includes a new Translator's Note by Pierrati. Show more
