“Exile, memory, and translation: these three concepts form the points
of a
triangle applied and manipulated brilliantly in Paolo Bartoloni’s newest
book, *On the Cultures of Exile, Translation, and Writing*.
Bartoloni’s work
is an original exploration of texts by some of the major French,
German, and
Italian writers of the twentieth century. The author’s application of
thought by Caproni, Blanchot, and Agamben to literary texts indicates
clearly and poignantly what it means and how it feels to live here
but not
here, now but not yet, in the eerie state of being open to what is to
come.”
