En savoir plus
The Widowing Radiance is a poem about poetry, querying what it means to live a life in poetry, and praising and interrogating the life and art fountaining through the creative imagination. This book of poetry is also about being a father, a husband, a son, and a man. And it is about the influence of the poet's Italian American Roman Catholic upbringing, from the invocation of his namesake in the prologue to the last canto addressing his children and his children's children.
