Description

Although he is now mostly remembered as a novelist, it is as a poet and a translator of poetry that Sándor Márai - the acclaimed author of 'Embers' and 'Conversations in Bolzano' - first made his name in the literary world. This collection, the first and only edition of Márai's poems in the English language - here presented in John M. Rudland's and Peter V. Czipott's brilliant verse translation - offers a comprehensive selection spanning the author's whole career and exemplifying his show more mastery of what he considered to be the highest form of literary expression. show less
