Sleepless Traveler is a collection of poems by the Italian poet Sandro Penna, with English translations by Jahan Khajavi and Tim Moore. The side-by-side translation of Penna's lyric poetry is coupled with illustrations by the American artist Louis Fratinöwho also contributed a brief original text¿as well as an essay on Penna by the Italian poet Nico Naldini, translated into English. Sandro Penna was born in Perugia in 1906, and lived most of his life in Rome. Considered to be one of the greatest Italian poets of the 20th century, the stridently homoerotic themes of Penna's lyric limited his recognition, while subjecting his work to censorship during his lifetime and beyond. Most of his poetry remains untranslated into English, while the majority of existing English translations are out of print. Il viaggiatore insonne was Penna's final collection of poetry, published shortly after his death in his Roman apartment in 1977. Comprised of a core ¿tredici bellissime poesie¿ ("thirteen wonderful poems") as he referred to them endearingly, Penna had waited until his final months to relinquish these poems to his editor, keeping them close until the right moment.
