Toronto, ECW Press. 2017, 1st Canadian Edition. (ISBN: 1770413707) Soft cover. Book, Referencing the post-war neorealist film by Vittorio De Sica, Mary di Michele's Bicycle Thieves commemorates her Italian past and her life in Canada through elegy and acts of translation of text and of self.The collection opens with a kind of hymn to life on the planet, sung from the peak of that urban island, Montreal ..and moves into the poet's autobiography - in search of catharsis through literature - and pays tributes to poets who have been part of the literary landscape di Michele now inhabits. Bicycle Thieves is poetry as time machine, transcending the borders between life and death, language and culture. Fine.
