On Saturday 5 March 2022, the South Tyrolean writer Thomas Daddezio will present his latest poetic collection “Cambiamento” (Change) at the Kunst Grenzen room in Rovere della Luna (Tn).
The “Cambiamento” (Change) is the common thread that, through the chapters The scattered sunsets, The colors of time, Diamonds and New horizons, accompanies the author’s inner journey from the first youthful experiences to the contemporary: love, loss, loneliness, the indifferent chaos of city traffic, the poet’s gaze turned to the moon and the universe, Nature wounded and offended but always strong and wonderful from which to start again with gratitude for a new contact with one’s own intimate essence and rebirth. The final message leaves no doubt:
“Never miss
Hope at dawn
To live one day
In a better future … “
Born in Bolzano in 1975, after ups and downs and a deep youthful sentimental wound, Thomas Daddezio soon began to put his feelings on paper, taking Giuseppe Ungaretti as his ideal teacher, whose expressive depth combined with stylistic essentiality he admired. He participates in the Poetry Group 83, subsequently to Poeti d ’Unterland then the cultural circle of Lettera 7. Mistilingue, he already has numerous publications in Italian to his credit, of which “Cambiamento” (Change) is his latest editorial effort.
Wenn Gott oder die Menschheit mich fragen was Dichtung mir bedeutet: die Tiefe meines Verstandes, meines Geistes, und meines Herzens in wunderschoenen Worten auszudruecken wird dann demuetig meine Antwort lauten.
Dieses Buch ist die Essenz meines Lebens.
If God or humanity ask me what poetry means to me: to express the depth of my mind, my spirit and my heart with beautiful words, then humbly will be my answer.
This book is the essence of my life.
The author will be presented by “the alchemist of the word” Angelo Magro, referent for the “Poets” sector Kunst Grenzen, while the theater actress Maria Pia Zanetti, collaborator with the RAI headquarters who with the Teatro Stabile of Bolzano, will read the critical text alla silloge created by Italo Bonassi, President of the Poetry Group 83, vice-president of the Trentino committee of the Dante Alighieri National Society and member of the Cenacle of Dialectal Poetry in Verona with two career awards, in 2006 by the Ettore Cozzani Artistic Literary Cenacle of La Spezia and in 2012 of the Literary Artistic Cenacle Val di Magra Roberto Micheloni (Massa Carrara).

Thomas Daddezio will complete the project in his own way with the vision of the other “half of the sky” by announcing that a change is possible for all those who want to hear and assimilate the message, which is personal as it is the poet who gets naked and suffer the adversities told in the sylloge, but it is universal due to its continuous dialogue between oneself and the other from oneself who is the reader and the wider audience who will want to hear.
