Set against the chequered background of Rome, the city of the six Ps - Pope, priests, princes, prostitutes, parasites and the poor - Belli"s sometimes scandalous sonnets deal with life"s elementals: love, death, sex, food, money, family, religion and politics.



In his immense oeuvre, sampled here in a sizeable and varied selection of the best poems, people from every course and manner of life have their say - housewives, mothers, beggars, lovers, businessmen, popes, whores, doctors, thieves, lawyers, priests, pen-pushers, actresses, gossips and many more. Their voices and preoccupations are brilliantly and accurately rendered in this dual-language volume by prize-winning novelist and poet Mike Stocks, one of the finest sonneteers of our day.
