Publisher's Synopsis
Solitude, war, exile and suffering are illuminated with unforgettable subtlety, style and detail by Mario Susko, described by Hugh Seidman as "one man speaking before the unalterable and uncaring universe." Susko maintains his spirit of wonder in these vivid and exquisitely crafted poems.
Mario Susko has translated James Baldwin, Saul Bellow and most recently Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass into Croatian. He has won the prestigious Nuove Lettere Premio Internazionale di Poesia e Letteratura, the Council of Europe Award and three Fulbright scholarships.
