The Clouds

Of Hollow

Riccardo
Giovanni was born in Rome
in
1969 and spent his early years
in Milan
and Nice. He received undergraduate
and graduate degrees in Boston.
In addition to poetry,
he has also explored the
media of photography, finding
success
in a number of solo gallery exhibitions.
As with his writing, his
photography frequently
portrays veiled references
to
the female body, shadows of emotions
and a sense of loss. Most of
the poems in this collection
were written during the years
that
Giovanni lived in New York City.
He currently divides his
time between
the mountains of western Panamá and
Rio De Janeiro.
