The Tortoise of History
Autor Anselm Holloen Limba Engleză Paperback – aug 2016
From "Art History":
Someone comes along
gives that tedious old thing
a new twist or
breaks its neck
the old questions
don't change:
what do you want me to say?
what do you want me to do?
Anselm Hollo (1934–2013) authored more than forty books and was an award-winning translator. Born in Helsinki, Finland, he was fluent in German, Swedish, Finnish, and English by age ten.
