In his fictional speaker, Roberto Zingarello, John Bradley has found a way to manage the weight of the 20th century, questing for love, truth, and revenge. Fascist Italy is confronted and ultimately transcended as Bradley's obsessions with Italian film and literature bear this astonishing fruit, a history both public and private. Says Ray Gonzalez of the Bloomsbury Review, We need more characters like Zingarello in American poetry and more poets like Bradley who will step out of bounds to shake us with writing that is so different and important. Bill Tremblay adds, With Love-in-Idleness, John Bradley enters the world of fictive poetry, and we are the richer for it. In Zingarello, Bradley has created a voice big enough to express the human dream of transcending history.
