Balkan Poetry Today 2017 (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Featuring the work of nearly 30 poets from across SE Europe, Balkan Poetry Today 2017 offers insight into the rich and diverse poetries of a region that has only sporadically emerged onto the literary radar in the English-speaking world. Established writers sit alongside those from the latest generation to add their voices both to the region's poetic traditions and world poetry in general.

This volume also includes an excellent section devoted to contemporary poetry from Bulgaria, an introduction to contemporary poetry from Macedonia and an essay looking at other recent translations of poetry from SE Europe.

This really is a unique venture and a bold and brave move to attempt to present poetries from more than eight countries and several more languages for the first time in new and original translations for the English-reading market in one volume. This is the first in the series devoted to Balkan poetry to be published annually.
