Book Reviews of Selected Poems and Prose of Paul Celan
Book Review: The greatest and most important of the twentieth century
Summary: 5 Stars
Despair and survival are the key-notes to Paul Celan's poetry. After the destruction of his world in the Holocaust he was left only with language and the myths of the past. Out of these he created the strongest, most moving and evocatively allusive poetry of the twentieth century. These new translations of his poetry superbly capture what is most challenging and most beautiful in that poetry. Celan became a heroic figure by his attempt to capture what caused the Holocaust and to imagine what was left after it.
