Biscotti Neri is my first book of fictions. It's published in Italy by Madcap Collective. If you read Italian, go to my website/blog in Italian, where you can find info about the book and more.
"Luca Dipierro writes stories with a style and a twisted imagination like nothing I've ever seen before--they're dark, surreal, and extremely unsettling. They're also incredibly smart and funny. He's working on a different plane altogether, and we should all be very grateful for that. These are the folk tales of the future."
Jim Knipfel, author of Slackjaw and These Children Who Come at You With Knives

"Finally, somebody has updated the strange and wonderful literary genre of hagiography. These stories reveal the mysteries and the wonder of the daily worldf we are only attentive to the important signs and meaningful details that exist all around us. Thank you Black Arrow for this astonishing collection of sacred fictional texts." Michael Kimball, author of Dear Everybody and Us
