Reverse Graffiti

by Joey Nicoletti

Poetry. Italian American Studies. "Joey Nicoletti's book, REVERSE GRAFFITI, is dotted with images from popular culture—Captain Marvel, Spider Man, the Yankees—and these images are part of the story of his Italian-American family, his working class roots, his love for his family, his desire to escape. These are powerful, heartfelt poems that bring an era to life. Joey Nicoletti is an amazing poet, capable of moving us to laughter and tears."—Maria Mazziotti Gillan
