About this product
Product Information
In From the Fire Hills, poet Chad Davidson shows us an Italy that is far from the romanticised notions of sun-drenched fields and self-discovery. Instead we see a maelstrom of chaos and contradiction, a place where the frenetic pace of modernity is locked in a daily struggle with recalcitrant history.

Reviews
"Italy is the origin of so much that we take for granted in our art, architecture, cuisine, literature, politics, religion, history, language. In From the Fire Hills --part pop-cultural Virgilian Guide Book, part twenty-first-century Grand Tour Baedeker--Davidson traverses this storied, incendiary terrain with what he has elsewhere called his signature 'Bigfoot Poetics,' as comfortable among the supper talk of cryptozoologists as it is among the pages of supermarket tabloids."-- Lisa Russ Spaar , Author of Vanitas, Rough: Poems and The Hide-and-Seek Muse: Annotations of Contemporary Poetry "These lovely, complex poems are the notebooks of a cultural commuter, written during his journeys back and forth across the Gothic Lines that divide present from past, memory from experience, private from public. They are bravura performances, full of the nimbleness of mind and form that I have long admired in Davidson's work."-- Geoffrey Brock , author of Weighing Light "Davidson's powerful From the Fire Hills is a love song to California and Italy, which is to say it's a love song to history and language: 'Even in Italy,/I watched too much TV, conversing not with people/but with language itself,' Davidson wryly observes. From the Fire Hills is like the beautiful old churches in Italy: 'Like damaged clocks/they possess and are possessed by history.' And damage, beauty, and history sing in precise and heartbreaking harmony throughout the book."-- Andrew Hudgins , author of After the Lost War and American Rendering: New and Selected Poems, "Italy is the origin of so much that we take for granted in our art, architecture, cuisine, literature, politics, religion, history, language.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
