Award-winning poet, ecologist, PhD physicist and Royal Literary Fund Fellow Mario Petrucci has held major poetry residencies at the Imperial War Museum and BBC Radio 3.  Heavy Water: a poem for Chernobyl (Enitharmon, 2004) secured the Daily Telegraph/ Arvon Prize and “inflicts... the finest sort of shock, not just to the senses, but to the conscience, to the soul” (Poetry London).  i tulips (Enitharmon, 2010) takes its name from his 1111-strong Anglo-American sequence, and has received much acclaim for its distinctive combination of innovation and humanity.  Mario is an experienced tutor on the international scene, and his performances are as compelling as they are memorable.   www.mariopetrucci.com
