Book excerpt: Having kept his writing all but secret for 40 years, Scott Harney has left behind an astounding gift to discover in his posthumous collection, The Blood of San Gennaro. One of Robert Lowell's last students, Harney's voice sings steady and true, with unforgettable wisdom and humor. From the complex streets of his youth in Charlestown, Massachusetts, to the intimate scenes set in his adopted city of Naples, Italy, the people and places in these poems feel so close that you could reach out and touch them. Lovingly collected and edited by his classmate, partner, and Pulitzer Prize winning biographer Megan Marshall, The Blood of San Gennaro will leave you wondering how such a polished gem remained hidden for so long.
