Seller's Description:
Port Townsend. 1996. Copper Canyon Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 155659108x. Translated from the Polish by Czeslaw Milosz and Leonard Nathan. 163 pages. paperback. Cover art: Stephanie Lutgring. keywords: Poetry Literature Poland Translated Women. FROM THE PUBLISHER-‘A poet should he as sensitive as an aching tooth, ' said Anna Swir (1909-1984), one of Poland's most distinguished poets. Open in her feminism and eroticism, her poetry explores the life of the female body from dread to delight, from the depths of agony during WWII to delirious sensual delights, and always with relentless honesty. A member of the Resistance during the Nazi occupation and a military nurse in a makeshift hospital during the Warsaw Uprising, Swir once waited an hour fully expecting to be executed. Affected deeply by her experience, she wrote a poetry which rejected the grand gesture of war in favor of a world cast in miniature, a world in which the body and individual survive. In his introduction, translator and Nobel Prize-winner Czeslaw Milosz asks, ‘What is the central theme of these poems? Answer: Flesh. Flesh in love and ecstasy, in pain, in terror, flesh afraid of loneliness, giving birth, resting, feeling the flow of time or reducing time to one instant. By such a clear delineation of her subject matter, Anna Swir achieves in her sensual, fierce poetry a nearly calligraphic neatness. ' inventory #41147.
