The Last Song of the World

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Joseph Fasano

Joseph Fasanos The Last Song of the World delves into the chaos of the modern world, and searches for resilience in the face of environmental and societal devastation. Dripping with images of ancient ruins and mythological figures, these poems serve as vignettes of fatherhood, love, and desire against the backdrop of apocalyptic events.

Through the documentation of ongoing violence and natural phenomena, Fasano depicts the ever-present anxieties of parenting with concision and compassion. The Last Song of the World is a love letter to the world that could bea world as tender as it is bold, as loving as it is brutal, as beautiful as it is horrendous.
