More writer or poet?
" Good question. Before publishing "disappointments essential", with the publisher Giuliano Ladolfi "this my poetry published recently, I felt tended more towards fiction to poetry, but the enthusiasm that has been generated around this installment of my poems slightly changes my point of view. I am referring in particular to the learned preface written by Giuliano Ladolfi for this my poetry collection"
What authors inspire you?
" From the narrative point of view is my great admiration for authors such as Italo Calvino and Kafka. In the poem, however, recognize that you have many references, contemporary and not".
Who's the recipient of your writings?
" My writings hitherto published texts are strongly focused on reality. The first, the story "Il Fantasma dell'Opera di Sciacca", which won the first prize "Archilettura-Pescara", is a text of the chronicles of our time with the literary and architectural ideas, and therefore certainly recommend to my fellow architects while I think "disappointments essential" can enjoy a wider audience of users".
Tell us about your first work.
"Disinganni essenziali" is a journey in contemporary society, but not only. In my collection converge both personal experiences and thematic group exhibitions. In detail affront also some issues related to living in the so-called "Umbilicus Siciliae". A journey melancholy, certainly, but not totally devoid of optimism.
A hint on this first prize with "Il Fantasma dell'Opera di Sciacca".
" I was very stimulating. The story concerns the modern theater of Sciacca, designed by architects Joseph and Alberto Samonà and still unfinished. A duty to work built on and off and abandoned by the administrative bodies, hence the double meaning of the title. Here one can see is my passion as an architect that my enthusiasm of the young author.
In the near future I have other projects. In particular, a publication with a young publisher of Palermo, a collection of stories related to a very personal vision of Sicily and some of its reality"
