From the internationally award-winning author of "For a Fistful of Soil" come this fifth collection of poetry. A powerful awakening of our social conscience blended with an intimate journey from exile to rooting in a new land and the healing of a special love. His poetry once again goes beyond the written page for its evocative intensity and multiple meanings.

Ungaretti’s beautiful biography is a splendid poetic portrait of the spirit of the first half of this century, in Italy and in the whole of Europe. This is the first time anywhere that all of the poet’s verse has been presented in translation.
