    Dante In Love: Dante Alighieri’s Vita Nuova Reinterpreted

    Fred Gardaphe(July 06, 2017)
    You might know Anthony Valerio from his previous stories, novels and biographies, and if you do, then you’ll have found that he is a master of the love story. Whether it’s street love in Brooklyn, the historical romance between Giuseppe and Anita Garibaldi, or the illicit affair between a writer and a married woman that’s mediated by a gangster the common thread of them all is love: how people live with it and without it. In his latest work, Valerio reaches back to the Renaissance master Dante Alighieri and explores this theme in a very unique way.

    Tomato Bruschetta

    Like so many of Italy’s best dishes, bruschetta owes its origins to la cucina povera, whose customary marriage of frugality and ingenuity among Italy’s peasant class dictated that nothing edible ever be tossed out. In the case of bruschetta, stale bread is made over to something not just edible but really tasty, by the mere act of toasting and topping with quality ingredients like sun-ripened, organic tomatoes and an impeccable extra virgin olive oil.

    Maria Rita Latto(June 12, 2017)
    Vivere un amore a New York. Un amore clandestino, come ce ne sono tanti. Un amore che dura sette anni, due mesi e nove giorni in una città descritta nella sua fisicità, nella sua carnalità, nella sua sensualità, ma anche nella solitudine di chi vi abita. Antonio Monda nel suo ultimo romanzo, "L'evidenza delle cose non viste", aggiunge un nuovo efficace tassello, il quinto, alla decalogia newyorkese iniziata con "L’America non esiste" nel 2012.
