sergio frusoni

Sergio Frusoni (August 10, 1901 in the island of So Vicente - May 29, 1975) was a Capeverdean poet. His parents, Giuseppe Frusoni and Erminia Bonucci, were Italian. At the age of 24, he began to work at the Western Telegraph Company and changed later on to Italcable. In 1947, he managed the O Caf Sport in Mindelo, where he presented poems and anecdotes in crioulo. After that he continued to work at Italcable. In the 60s, he conducted the theatre group Theatro do Castilho in Mindelo. During years, he was chronicler at the radio Barlavento, where he produced the program Mosaico Mindelense in crioulo. Frusoni wrote many short stories and poems in the Creole of So Vicente (Criol d' Soncente). He is quite well known in Cape Verde; unfortunately, he is almost unknown outside the island.
