Stone Sleeper
ISBN: 9780856463976 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 157 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Inspired by tombstones and their inscriptions, Mak Dizdar's rich and haunting poems in Stone Sleeper, his most famous work, are a journey into the mysterious heart of medieval Bosnia. The poems form a three-way dialogue between the modern poet, the Christian heretics awaiting Judgement Day beneath their enigmatically-carved tombstones, and the heretic-hunters.

Francis R Jones's inventive and...
