Synopsis

One Life, Many Lives is Volume 3 of The Poems of Award-Winning Poet and Novelist Piero Rivolta. In this book of poems and prose reflections, Piero looks to the past while offering keen observations and insight into our current state of affairs. Wistful musings, triggered by a visit to his childhood home in Italy, about watershed occurrences like September 11 and observations of his natural surroundings, alternate with lyric poems that celebrate love, art, music and other momentary pleasures. With the original Italian poems alongside the English translations, readers have the opportunity to experience the lyrics in both languages. PRAISE FOR THE POETRY OF PIERO RIVOLTA: "Piero Rivolta's poetry is a mix of delicate sounds plucking the strings of memory. It celebrates both melancholy and passion. He is what might be called a universal romantic, someone for whom the meaning of an object or scene persists without binding him to a solitary history; but it is his talent to evoke the power of memory that gives his poetry a flavor beyond the mere stirring of words. Though his lines are short, they suggest lasting sentences of thought, ending in a "cry of happiness" for things endured." --- Martin Tucker, Author of "While There is Time: Penultimate Poems"
