Ignazio Buttitta, the poet from Bagheria (a district in Palermo, Sicily), tells sto-ries of love, which for many Sicilians is all about the rules of relationship. Moschella and Sorrenti have chosen to pay a tribute to the poet in occasion of the twentieth anniversary of his death: «For entire generations these past years have meant misery and a total eclipse of human rights. (…) the average reader Buttitta is reaching out to those who are considered human in that same sense. The tears are equal to the levels of distraction belonging to middle class bourgeoisie. Today’s poetry somehow embodies the “sonnets” of all the dead foreign children along the shore; their blank and lifeless stares facing the ambulances. Is it because we see them as just images in the news that we perceive them as so, so far away? Still today, this gives Buttitta a reason to shout out: “Parru cu tia! To’ è la curpa” (I’m talking to you! This is your fault!)».
