Description

Immigrant Songs is a posthumous collection of the works of Saro (Rosario) D’Agostino. It includes poems, fiction works that may be chapters of an unfinished novel, and letters. These fragments from a seminal Italo-Canadian writer whose life was cut too short are part of Canadian literary history.

About the authors

Saro D’Agostino is an important writer who as early as the 1970s was among the first to write about the Italian Canadian immigrant experience. Even though he published little over his lifetime, his work has influenced many writers including Gianna Patriarca, Pier Giorgio Di Cicco, Luciano Iacobelli, and Mary di Michele.
