"The Rose in Contemporary Italian Poetry delivers far more than one might suppose from its deceptively simple title." "Peterson has made an important contribution, both in showing that the rose remains a vital topos and providing us with a much fuller appreciation of the interconnections and complexity of modern Italian poetry." -Thomas L. Cooksey, Armstrong Atlantic State University
