Faggi. In his first collection of poetry published in English, he delights us with wit and mischief, with sensuality and thoughtfulness. Even the most dreary, mundane aspects of life (laundry, for example) become a playground of possibility, opportunities for pranks and theatrics. In some of his most whimsical 'tailed passages', Faggi commands the reader to become a part of the poetry, a part of the art. 'Take your green dress (wear it). ' Thus, the reader enters and helps create the rather surrealistic world of the poet where clotheslines stretch from Tuscany to San Francisco and love letters turn into kites. In none of the pieces is the artist's eye very far away - old toenails become coins, panties on a line, flags. And when the mischievous meets the sensual, the results are most intriguing. inventory #32181 Very Good in Wrappers With French Flaps.
