Scope and Contents

In the letter to Marvin Sackner, Riccardo Boglione wrote that this book "is the removal of all the words of the entire Boccaccio's Decameron, except for the spacing between words and the punctuation...Ritmo D ignites the tension between erasure and evocation of one of the most censored books in history. An example of abstract literature, of an illegible text that, yet, can be read." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
