Seller's Description:
Middlesex. 1969. Penguin Books. Reprinted Penguin Modern European Poets Series Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. Penguin Modern European Poets series. Translated from the German by Michael Hamburger & Christopher Middleton. 88 pages. paperback. D106. Cover photo of Günter Grass by Hans Rama. keywords: Poetry Literature Germany Translated. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Günter Grass, famous as a novelist, is here presented as a poet in a selection from his three published volumes. Grass's belief that an artist, however committed he may be in life, should be only a jester in art, is admirably practised in these poems in which fantasy, ingenuity and humour are substitutes for didacticism, and no word, thing or idea is too sacrosanct to be played with. Even in the recent controversial political poems, which come close to blurring his division between life and art, Grass's tremendous zest and sensuous response are felt. Penguin Modern European Poets is designed to present, in verse translations, the work of significant poets of this century for readers unfamiliar with the original languages. The series already includes Yevtushenko, Rilke, Apollinaire, Prevert, Quasimodo, a volume of Greek poets, Holub, Herbert and Enzensberger. inventory #43295.
