Szymborska\'s voice emerges as that of a gentle subversive, self-deprecating in its wit, yet graced with a gift for coaxing the extraordinary out of the ordinary..
This long-awaited volume samples the full range of Wislawa Szymborska\'s major themes: the ironies of love, the wonders of nature\'s beauty, and the illusory character of art.
A new translation of the Nobel Prize-winning Polish poet, with an introduction by Czeslaw Milosz.
