Born in Switzerland and resident in Italy, Pusterla engages the pressing moral concerns of his age and excavates the hidden realities of our concrete world. These are poems of disquieting Alpine landscapes and rift zones, filled with curious fauna, lanced with troubling memories, built \"from the bottom, from the margins, from outside\" the mainstream. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePusterla is the author of eight critically acclaimed books of poetry and has received several major literary prizes. Selected and translated by Will Schutt, himself an award-winning poet, this volume draws from Pusterla's six most recent collections to capture a wide range of the poet's work. With English translations and Italian originals on facing pages, \u003ci\u003eBrief Homage to Pluto and Other Poems\u003c\/i\u003e deftly introduces one of Europe's most ambitious, imaginative, and humane poets to English-speaking readers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFabio Pusterla\u003c\/b\u003e is a prolific poet, essayist, and translator, most notably of the work of Philippe Jaccottet.
