“…Fabio Moliterni, for instance, has argued for the progressive growth within the italophone scene of a 'poetics of attention', which in his view is particularly visible in a series of works published over the past three decades, including some of Pusterla's books. 11 According to Moliterni, these poetics make a sharp turn towards attenzione, a critical notion that points to receptivity as a foundational quality. Moliterni indicates polyphony, dialogism, metapoetic reflection, loss of metaphysical tensions, lyric use of everyday objects, and crossings from the individual to the collective as some of the common traits of these poetics.…”
