'For the vast majority of Italians and others to whom the name
means anything, Matera is synonymous with abject poverty and
backwardness. In fact, being the capital of its province, which
occupies the lower and Eastern half of the region known today as La
Basilicata, in the highlands inland between the Ionian Sea and the
Adriatic, its is relatively affluent in a world where degradation
is the rule. I came to this community quite by accident, penniless,
and stayed to teach there for a year and a half. What I saw, what I
learned, what I felt, my relations to other there and that of earth
and air, fire and water, to them and to myself, should be implicit,
if not explicit, in these poems.'
