VINCENZO MERCOLINO (author)

Double P (Pessoa and Poe) revived

Vincenzo mercolino

Poet since childhood, I have embraced in the past also the "short story" writing, especially the fantasy genre.

In addition to various plaques and medals received over the years, I have achieved the following awards:

• 1993: 2nd prize ex-aequo, "City of Fucecchio" - National Conc. of poetry and fiction, with a free theme poem.
• 1995: 3rd prize ex-aequo, "City of Viareggio" - Carnival table, with an unpublished narrative text.
• 1997: Finalist, "Penisola Sorrentina" - National Poetry Prize, with a religious poem.

I participated in the twelfth edition of the "Trofeo R.I.L.L." in 2006, part of the "Lucca Comics".

In 2011 I published the first edition of a collection of poems inspired by some texts by F. Pessoa, with the title "Poetando Pessoa". Today the book, published with the self-publishing formula, is in its third edition with translations in English and Portuguese, a further translation into Spanish is coming.

In 2015 I published two other books (always with a self-publishing formula):

• "A Trick of the Tales", a series of fantasy short-novels inspired by some lyrics of the songs of the "Genesys" group, with English translation.

• "Dove'è la felicità?", a short novel set in the 19th century in the city of Turin.
