Perhaps Fly

These short lucid poems describe the opportunities and challenges of an Italian-American family facing a new country and a modern lifestyle. Although the poet writes from a distinct, personal, and sometimes isolated point of view, he has a wealth of family customs and traditions--meals, businesses, visits, and stories--to help him through conflicts and losses. Also, a deep religious faith endures for the family, mixing itself with their wines and sauces, representing the blood of their kinship and labors, consecrating and elevating their lives to save them by remembrances that reach beyond literature. - Anthony Berret, SJ, St. Joseph's University
