In the Journal of Italian Translation (Volume XIII, No. 2, Fall 2018). Paul Vangelisti’s fine review of Alfredo de Palchi’s Nihil (Xenos Books, 2017): « John Taylor’s work is exemplary in treating a poet like de Palchi, who’s temperamentally as well as culturally challenging to carry over into English. Taylor’s translating skills, combined with his knowledge of the poetry evidenced in his introduction, demonstrate how well-prepared this translator is to impersonate de Palchi’s Nihil. » In the same issue, three poems from Taylor’s Remembrance of Water & Twenty-Five Trees (Bitter Oleander Press) have appeared in Italian (in Marco Morello’s translation).
