Product Description
Review
"'Herbert is a poet with all the strength of an Antaeus... He shoulders the whole sky and the scope of human dignity and responsibility.' Seamus Heaney * 'Zbigniew Herbert was one of the greatest Polish writers of this century. He is a figure comparable to, say, T. S. Eliot or W. H. Auden.' New Yorker * 'Herbert's poems, even in English, seem to me finer than anything currently being written by any English or American poet.' A. Alvarez, New York Review of Books 'One of the great poets of our time.' Charles Simic, New York Times 'A standout... A strapping posthumous compendium that for the first time places all the essential work of this indispensable modern poet in the hands of English-speaking readers.' Boston Globe 'Now, nearly 10 years after his death, Herbert's voice is gathered, uncensored and unimaginably strong, in one dynamic volume.' San Francisco Chronicle" --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
