Summary

An updated edition of Poland's most popular and influential living poet, in Adam Czerniawski's masterly selection and translation. Tadeusz Rozewicz is an outstanding figure in the generation whose work was marked by Poland's traumatic war-time experience: "What I produced is poetry for the horror-stricken. For those abandoned to butchery. For survivors."

He lives in Wroclaw, but often travels in Europe and America. He was awarded the Montale Prize in 2003, the latest of many awards and honours.
