The Poems of Georg TraklGeorg TraklTranslated by Margitt Lehbert
Imprint: Anvil Press Poetry
Publisher: Carcanet Press Available as: Paperback (192 pages) (Pub. Mar 2007) 9780856462856 Out of Stock
This collection of Trakl’s essential poetry contains the two books published in his lifetime, Gedichte (Poems, 1913) and Sebastian im Traum (Sebastian in a Dream, 1914), together with the later poems published in the magazine Der Brenner which might have formed the nucleus of a third collection. His starkly beautiful, musical poems are rightly regarded as being among the early twentieth century’s most original poetry. From a life marred by drug addiction and breakdowns, he created work of great depth and power, brought hauntingly to life in Margitt Lehbert’s close and sympathetic versions. |
