Vasko Popa: Complete Poems 1953-1987 by Vasko Popa
From surrealist fable to traditional folk-tale, from personal anecdote to tribal myth, Popa's poetry embodies in an original form the most profound imaginative truths of our age, precisely located in the reality and history of Serbia, in the heart of Central Europe. This new edition, based on the 1978 edition translated by the late Anne Pennington, revised and extended for the 1997 edition by Francis R. Jones, adds a dozen previously untranslated occasional poems.
Popa's imaginative journey resembles a Universe passing through a UniverseIt has been one of the most exciting things in modern poetry, to watch this journey being made Ted Hughes
