Sicilian Erotica

by Giovanni Meli, Domenico Tempio, Giuseppe Marco Calvino, Onat Claypole (Translator), Gaetano Cipolla (Editor)

Overview

This a collection of erotic poetry by three Sicilian masters: Giovanni Meli, Domenico Tempio and Giuseppe Marco Calvino. Their poetry is an expression of their iconoclastic attitudes toward the hypocritical and unnatural view of sex in the early nineteent century. The three poets have a different approach, light and elegant, Meli; raunchy and iconoclatic Tempio and Calvino, but all three are hilarious in their inventiveness. A delightful book masterfully translated into English.
