Duologue

de Antonio D'Alfonso, Pasquale Verdicchio · Publicada por primera vez en 1998

In San Diego, California, between June 15 and June 17, 1996, two writers sit before a microphone and exchange ideas on a number of burning issues which they both had to deal with for over twenty years. Literature, the politics of publishing, identity, culture, post-emigrant culture, ethnicity, pluriculturalism, Americanism, Canadianism, nationalism, the use of writers' associations: these are some of the themes that Antonio D'Alfonso and Pasquale Verdicchio tackle in this casual yet intense duologue. More than just a leisurely dialogue, this essay as conversation is a labyrinth of serious thinking that questions many false notions that are being presented in media today.
