First edition of this collection of poetry from the Nobel Prize-winning author. Octavo, original boards. Signed by Wislawa Szymborska on the half-title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Jennifer Jackman. Translated from the Polish by Clare Cavanagh and Stanislaw Baranczak.
In this collection of contemplative, witty, and always surprising poems, Wislawa Szymborska writes with verve about everything from love unremembered to keys mislaid in the grass, from small-scale naughtiness to the happiness of skating on this ice, from the district firemen's ball to the cosmos. "The wry and slyly tender voice of Wislawa Szymborska couldn't belong to anyone else" (Mark Doty).
