Before and After the Fall: New Poems: Lannan Translations Selection Series

Autor Sándor Csoóri Traducere de Len Roberts
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 mai 2004
These poems record what Sándor Csoóri calls “the chronic memory of violence,” namely the horrors of World War II and the ensuing Communist occupation of Hungary. Several poems written after Communism collapsed cast a cold eye on the state of a free Hungary. Imbued with deft surrealistic strokes, Csoóri creates a stunningly symbolic and visionary voice that is unique in contemporary world poetry.
Sándor Csoóri, one of Hungary’s most prominent and outspoken poets, is the author of 16 books of poetry, six books of essays, two novels, and several film scripts.
Len Roberts is the translator of two chapbooks and one previous full length volume of Sándor Csoóri’s poetry, as well as eight books of his own poetry.
