The greatest poet of the Holocaust - The New York Times Avrom Sutzkever (1913-2010) was an acclaimed Yiddish poet, a freedom fighter, and a witness in the Nuremberg trials.
But what happens at the end of world-spanning travels, when the poet and the dove finally meet?.
He seeks the dove compelling him to write, wishing to feed her silver syllables.
Sutzkever\'s visionary imagery moves from the past to the future, from Dante to Chagall, from the streets that stone themselves to the Reed Sea.
His epic poem Ode to the Dove is now available in English for the first time in its entirety, translated by Zackary Sholem Berger, with illustrations by Liora Ostroff.
