Toornto: Mansfield Press, 2002 Book. Near Fine. French Wraps. 1st Can Ed.. After fifteen years of publishing silence, Pier Giorgio Di Cicco is back. Living in Paradise contains his best poetry from the seventies and eighties along with his first new poetry since he left the literary world to join a monastery. As Dennis Lee says in his penetrating afterword, "It's a book we have sorely missed." Readers will find generous selections from major works like Flying Deeper into the Century and Virgin Science, as well as from The Tough Romance, of which Lee says, "There is nothing in our literature to match this sinewy lyric explosion, with its pyrotechnics, its philosophic edge, and its undertow of heartbreak." With Living in Paradise, readers can rediscover a major poet, once again writing at the height of his powers. Two inscriptions on ffep, one by the author, and one apparently by the previous owner , else fine.
