This is the best translated and largest edition of poetry by the Czechs' only Nobel Prize?winning poet, Jaroslav Seifert (he won the prize in 1984 and died in 1986). The poetry is surprising in its simplicity, sensual, thoughtful, moving, comic in turns. Author Milan Kundera has called this collection ?the tangible expression of the nation’s genius.”
