This title in other editionsOther titles in the Karen & Michael Braziller Books series:Paul Celan: 70 Poemsby Paul Celan
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Paul Celan is the preeminent poet of the Holocaust. His chilling, haunted verse, evocative and agonizingly spare, is among the essential writing of the modern age. Paul Celan: 70 Poems is a portable selection of some of his most essential work, translated by Michael Hamburger (1924–2007), who for more than thirty years has provided the English-speaking world with the truest access to Celan’s oeuvre.
Synopsis:"Hamburger's starkly graceful selected translations [of Celan]...remain the best available."—Publishers Weekly
About the AuthorPaul Celan was a poet and translator born in the East European province of Bukovina. Soon after his parents, German-speaking Jews, had perished at the hands of the Nazis, Celan wrote the poem "Todesfuge" ("Deathfugue"), which depicted life in a German concentration camp.
