Knox’s first-rate talent as a translator remains in evidence on every page, even and especially when the text of more than a few poems is unapologetically risquéKudos to Peter Knox for pulling no punches. And plaudits to him for superb work all around. -- William J. Kennedy * Renaissance Quarterly *
