Gil Fagiani's muse is Italian American memory...poems of origins and belonging, of family, culture, politics...

recollections, both elegiac and ironic, of a world Fagiani observes from the privileged perspective of an insider who does not feel bound to the need to eulogize his community...a museum of language in which a gallery of characters and objects and moments are captured in lines that vibrate with a sound, a touch, a presence
—Edvige Giunta, Author of Writing with an Accent
