Yellow Fax and Other Poems

Poetry. Edited by Gianluca Rizzo. Translated by Gianluca Rizzo and Dominic Siracusa. Mariano Bàino's is among the most interesting poetry to be published at the end of last century; it is constantly straddling the border between different linguistic codes and is capable of reaching the reader without compromising the complexity of its experimentation, continuing a tradition whose immediate predecessors are the neo-avant-garde of Novissimi and Gruppo 63.--from the Introduction by Gianluca Rizzo
