Witch's Island and Other Poems
ISBN: 9781475974584 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. PETER HARGITAI's work, both in scope and in style, remains well outside the pale of current poetic fashion including the McPoems of MFA mills and the lip- tongue- ear literature of hiphop. Influenced by the great Hungarian poet Attila Jozsef's obsession with the eternal mother as a metaphor for all human longing, Hargitai probes the nature of spiritual exile on terms that are neither Freudian nor Jungian, American, or Hungarian, but on terms that are uniquely personal and movingly human. Praise for Peter Hargitai's Mother Tongue: A Broken-Hungarian Love Song: "If traditional...

Inventing Being Kitalalt Let
ISBN: 9780595670116 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. (IN)VENTING BEING... "This volume is by far Mozsi's best. He goes beyond the cerebral by penetrating the instinctual that lurks in the rarified spaces of sound and sense. The best poems, it is said, are untranslatable. So it is with these poems of love and passion. Time and time again I had to abandon the task of the translator and join the author as poet recreating with him. What I've tried to do is to avoid a banal mirror translation and offer instead what I perceived as the essence of the poetic effect. The poems are never static; they are a kinetic river of relentless images where the...
