Translating these poems with Antonia Dalpiaz has been one of the highlights of my writing career. They are so beautiful that it sometimes seemed to me that they were translating themselves! You will find within: poems of nature, poems of love, and many which defy genre classification. Dalpiaz wrote them in the dialect of her home town of Trento, Italy (trentino), and if you know some Italian you should be able to appreciate the wonderful charm of this dialect. This is why we wanted to publish this book in bilingual form, each poem in the original followed by the English. Enjoy!
