Title
Sgraffi [Scratches]. Newark: Biblioteca de L'Adunata dei Refrattari, 1946.
Description
This collection of poetry is dedicated to those who have gone through the same struggles that Damiani had suffered.
For a brief biography of Damiani, see entry for his La bottega. After the deaths of Galleani and Malatesta, the fascist regime in Italy considered Damiani, always on the move although never in the U.S., as the leader of Italian anarchism.
The Collection contains more than a dozen works published by the Library of the newspaper L'Adunata dei Reffratari [The Gathering of the Refractories], q.v., directed by "Max Sartin." That was the pseudonym of Raffaele Schiavina, who had been deported from the U.S. to Italy in 1919 along with Luigi Galleani. Unlike Galleani, Schiavina managed to sneak back into the U.S. and begin the publication once again of an anarchist newspaper very much like the Cronaca Sovversiva of Galleani, using this pseudonym.
