While he draws on a wide variety of English-language authors, from Bukowski to Woolf, he has also turned to Japanese literature, especially the haiku poets and the novelists Kawabata and Murakami. In Genovesi's poems and stories, their focused imagery and clipped phraseology run counter to the exuberant Anglo-American strain. By adroitly combining these disparate elements, he achieves a wholly original voice. ' - Hoyt Rogers \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"Genovesi makes use of diverse perspectives: spaces that are wide-open or infinitely small, present or post-apocalyptic, distorted by alcohol or clear as day. His harmonization of narrative rhythm with an acute sense of place quickly wins the reader's empathy.\" -Michele Casagrande \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"We of the younger generation are entirely products of the mass culture in a way that previous generations have not been. And that's a good thing, I think. The problem is that the elite culture has become more and more restricted and isolated, and so it has lost its desire to innovate.\" - Marco Genovesi \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e This is a bilingual (Italian and English) edition from Odd Volumes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hoyt Rogers, Marco Genovesi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Odd Volumes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/28\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.41d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692299050\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMarco Genovesi was raised in Abruzzo.
