Monologue Of A Dog
Acerca de este libro electrónico
From the Nobel Prize winner, a classic collection of witty and contemplative poems, featuring a foreword by Billy Collins
In Monologue of a Dog, Wisława Szymborska writes with her signature mix of intellect and humor about everything from love unremembered to keys lost in the grass, finding in the smallest moments a path to the vast questions of existence. What begins as a passing thought ends, in her hands, as an x-ray of the human condition.
This bilingual edition, with translations from the incomparable Clare Kavanagh, serves as a perfect introduction for new readers and an essential companion for devoted fans.
