Reviewer engages with The Blue Room
Poetry reviewer Philip K. Thompson recently published his take on The Blue Room, Poems by Carlo Spinazzola (1970-2003) in the Chronicle Herald (March 1, 2014).
“The agony of Carlo Spinazzola’s lonesome Blues flows through paintbrush and poetry. Some poems stand powerfully without need for musical accompaniment. Others might require that you imagine his open tuned guitar hammering notes and remember his strained voice.
“I encourage you to read them and, if you have the courage, engage his Blues with an open mind.”
