Homo Too Sapiens By Piero Rivolta Homo Too Sapiens is a collection of provocative observations from the novels and books of poetry by award-winning poet, Piero Rivolta. Laced with passion, wit and humor, and tinged with irony, they address a wide range of human concerns, including sexuality, ethnic differences, media, politics, bureaucracy, money, creativity, imagination, and consciousness. Rivolta’s love for humanity is as evident as his frustration with people’s pettiness, willful ignorance and inability to learn from history. You may not agree with all of his assertions and suggestions, but they will challenge you, amuse you and make you think […]

WOW!” There is not any one of your friends or acquaintances you are even close to […]
