AllMusic[1]

The album contains collaborations with Goran Bregovic and Angelique Kidjo, respectively in "Il pendio dell'abbandono" and "Madre Terra".[2] It was described as "maybe [Consoli's] best work", with "warm arrangements of strings and woodwinds" and Consoli abandoning electric guitars and "returning to the sounds of Sicilian tradition".[2] Two singles, "Signor Tentenna" and "Tutto su Eva", were released.

The album was also published in the United States in 2007.
