Carmen Gallo's New Publications Explore Contemporary Darkness and Myth

publication · 2026-03-20

Carmen Gallo has released three recent publications that examine themes of violence, ambiguity, and fear in contemporary society. Her works include 'Procne machine' (Einaudi, 2026), 'Stanze per una fuga. Poesie 2014-2024' (La vita felice, 2025), and 'Tecniche di nascondimento per adulti' (Italo Svevo, 2024). These books collectively map what the author describes as a dark dimension of our time, where traditional avoidance mechanisms have collapsed. Gallo's writing represents a continuation of one of the most consistent poetic works in recent years, consistently exploring new forms to confront pervasive horror in modern consciousness.
