Praise for Aufgabe No. 7
Jennifer [Scappettone] has penned an introduction to the selection [of Italian poetry in translation] that helpfully situates this poetry in relation to current global and Italian poetics, noting in particular how the internet is providing new sources of inspiration, such as the Kootenay school, Flarf, and so on, though Italy’s and Europe’s literary traditions, Jennifer notes, also provide many starting points.
