Paperback. Condición: New. Translated by Brian Cole, with an introduction by Peter Dale.Parallel text, Italian / English"Brian Cole translates Cattafi's precise meditations and unexpected imagery with skill and subtlety."Translation Review:"This is a subtle book full of those flashes of half-recognition that come 'when the hawk has made his journey / from the fist to a heart.'" Susan WicksVisible Poets series, no. 1. Series editor: Jean Boase-Beier.A selection from over 300 poems in the Collected Works, containing some of poet's finest writing. This collection reflects Cattafi's restlessness and his urge to travel - there are poems about islands, streets, cities, the sea, about places both familiar and unfamiliar to the English reader.But we are also aware of a strong element of spiritual journeying in his poetry, as he probes the truth and meaning behind the existence of the concrete, the ordinary, the everyday. In this new translation, Brian Cole translates Cattafi's precise meditations and unexpected imagery with consummate skill that allows the English reader to share the poet's urgency of being "driven by necessity / to a truth clothed in falsehood".Poetry Book Society Recommended Translation, Summer 2000.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Known as a poet who spoke of the history and suffering of the Jewish people, Nelly Sachs was, at the time she was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1966, highly regarded in her native Germany, frequently being described as a poet of reconciliation and healing, although whether she was is open to debate.Because of the complexity of her later poetry, she is often regarded as a difficult poet, but her work is not difficult to understand if it is read against the backdrop of the events that gave rise to it, and in the context of her own development as a poet. Jean Boase-Beiers striking translations focus on what she sees as Sachs very particular voice, one of outrage, despair, and grief, but also of enquiry, of irony, and often of straightforward anger.This chapbook, by presenting a small number of poems from throughout the poets main writing years and providing some general background together with short contextual explanations to individual poems, gives new readers a reason to read Nelly Sachs.

Paperback. Condición: New. Vengeanceparticular soldiersdisfigured the face of my beloveddead for having believed freedompossiblethe Berlin Wall fell far from useven as we were singingof an earlier victoryso very quickly confiscatedI've no desire to beg pardonOf my torturers - as if! -I've no desire to close my eyesSoleïman Adel Guémar's poetry is powerfully lucid, moving and sometimes shocking. Rooted in Algerian experience, it speaks of urgent concerns everywhere - oppression, resistance, state violence, traumas and private dreams.As Lisa Appignianesi writes in her introduction to this selection of Guémar's poetry: "Deceptively casual, colloquial in their idiom, always dramatic in their pessimism, Guémar's poems are a searing howl against the brutality which invades everyday Algerian life. This volume marks an important moment: a record from the inside of a history which is too palpably of our times. Where before we had only newspaper headlines or the dry reports of NGOs, we now have a living voice, both political and lyrical - an intensely individual voice which speaks out freely and traces the lineaments of a tragic history."Soleïman Adel Guémar was born in 1963 into a left-wing political family of Berber ancestry. He spent 2 years in France working in publishing, then, at the promise of free national elections, returned to Algeria in 1991 to work for (among others) the weekly newspaper L'Evènement. The elections were cancelled when an Islamist party won a landslide at local elections and L'Evènement was banned. For 10 years, Guémar worked in Algeria as a freelance journalist and publisher, but fell foul of the regime and was subjected to a campaign of violent intimidation. In December 2002, he arrived at Heathrow, claiming political asylum and, two years later, was granted indefinite leave to remain in the UK, where he now lives with his family in South Wales.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. I breathe out memory. To breathe it in, For now, a new epoch is needed, Or a new window may suffice - With a different aspect, laurelled roads, Where the setting sun deposits, Its birth-mark on me. This is like a postage stamp or the word 'Furniture' on the side of a van, And the brand-mark on cattle, - I'd like to be whoever, whatever, If only to move from the dead point, dead-end, And find the exit therefrom. But probably it's where it first was. Where later they crowned thorns with myrrh, That country, I don't know it now, Or city, where Lot alone was pared? All in all I must transcend, The intersecting lines of this window! This is the most substantial selection of Inna Lisnianskaya's work to be published in England to date, in a translation by Daniel Weissbort that Elaine Feinstein describes in her illuminating introduction as 'clean, clear and.amazingly felicitous'. Lisnianskaya, an intensely lyrical poet, is first and foremost a love poet, and the love that she and her late husband, the celebrated poet Semyon Lipkin, had for one another colours - without the least sentimentality - many of Lisnianskaya's more recent poems. Indeed, her most recent collection consists partly of an elegy to him. A selection of Inna Lisnianskaya's work, in a translation by Daniel Weissbort. Lisnianskaya, a lyrical poet, is a love poet, and the love that she and her late husband, the celebrated poet Semyon Lipkin, had for one another colours - without the least sentimentality - many of Lisnianskaya's poems.
