Reading

W. S. Di Piero reads poems from his fifth collection, The Restorers (1992), as well as poems that would later be published in Shadow Burning (1995). The poems are inspired by place—particularly California, Italy, and Philadelphia—and subjects as diverse as natural history, the lives of the saints, and the realm of Faerie.
