Poetry. Italian American Studies. This is Emanuel di Pasquale's
latest collection of poetry. His previous work has been praised by
the likes of X.J. Kennedy, Richard Wilbur, Dana Gioia, and Grace
Cavalieri. In this collection di Pasquale continues to offer his
reader wonderfully crafted poetry that is both wistful and
emotive.Praise for di Pasquale's previous work: "Emanuel di
Pasquale's HARVEST is a collection of poetry that observes the
landscape, both physical and psychological, of the New York / New
Jersey region. Prof. di Pasquale immigrated to the United States as
a teenager and has devoted a career to the literature of his
adopted nation as well as his maternal country. The work is
quintessentially American, whether he describes a landscape in
suburban New Jersey or a poetry reading at the foot of New York
City's Public Library. And yet, there is a hint of memory of the
old country, a phrase, no doubt spoken with a sign that brings
Southern Europe to Monmouth Beach ... a work of superb poetry with
imagery so crisp it could be used in a text book. More importantly,
it is a testament of what was brought to this country over the last
150 years that resonates in our culture from the plaque on the
Statue of Liberty to the slap of the waves on the California
coast."--Ed Bennett
