glowing-fish posted:Tomas Tranströmer (2011) Really surprised to see some of the names on the list of "obscure...". Lagerlof's children's books own, though I don't think they are as well known in the English speaking world as they are in the rest of Europe. Galsworthy's Forsythe Saga and Senkiewicz's With Fire and Sword are also read and occasionally can even be seen in Barnes & Noble and such. And at least several of Seferis, Montale, Elytis, Milosz, Brodsky, Paz, Szymborska, and Transtromer are usually to be found in any decent poetry section. Montale's Complete Poems have recently come out. Milosz and Brodsky are definitely the most popular post-war Polish and Russian poet, respectively. Paz's Labyrinths of Solitude is probably the most widely read book of essays on Mexico by a Mexican man of letters. Iamblikhos fucked around with this message at 05:09 on Apr 9, 2014 |
