italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Please find my new poetry book: Valentina Calista, L'abbraccio che manca al giorno, Ladolfi Editore, 2019.
"The poetry of Valentina Calista presents a "sapiential" adjective with the meaning that needs clarification. The poet within religious elements does not rely on a language or biblical figures. She sings herself, tells about her vertiginous internal and external story without any didactic intention. Yet the reader cannot fail to be fascinated by this experience to the point of establishing a comparison with himself/herself". And the wisdom of the heart does not come from books or studies, but from the passing of days, when research turns into goals and the goal towards other goals and so on in an endless process, testimony to the greatness of being human".

I will give a presentation of the book at Salone del Libro di Torino 2020 (14-18 May 2010).
All the best,
Valentina Calista
