About the Author: Adam Zagajewski was born in Lvov in 1945.
Unseen Hand is a luminous meeting of art and everyday life.
This collection, gracefully translated by Clare Cavanagh, finds the poet returning to the themes that have defined his career--moving meditations on place, language, and history.
His wry humor, gentle skepticism, and perpetual sense of history\'s dark possibilities have earned him a devoted international following.
Few writers in poetry or prose have attained the lucid intelligence and limpid economy of style that are the trademarks of his work.
