Poems, New and Collected by Wislawa Szymborska
When Wislawa Szymborksa's View with a Grain of Sand, also translated by Stanislaw Baraczak and Clare Cavanagh, was published shortly after its author's award of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1996, the Polish poet, hitherto all but unknown outside her own country, became an international name.
Wislawa Szymborska was born in Kórnik, Poland in 1923. She studied at Krakow University and worked at Zycie Literackie, the literary journal, as poetry editor and columnist from 1950 to 1981. She published many collections of poetry in her lifetime and was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1996. She died in 2012.
