"Paul Celan is one of the essential poets--not just of the
twentieth century, but of all time. Pierre Joris's selections from
the remarkable, heart-shattering work provide what is surely the
best one-volume introduction to Celan ever published in
English."--Paul Auster"No twentieth-century poet pierces the heart
of language with such an exquisite blade as Paul Celan. With Pierre
Joris & company's translations of key poems, poetics, letters,
and exemplary commentary, it is as if we are reading Celan for the
last time, once again."--Charles Bernstein, author of "With
Strings"Joris has dwelled during the better part of his life in
Celan's words and silences and, as his brilliant introduction
demonstrates, he has journeyed through the work's intricacies like
very few others."--Michael Palmer, author of "The Promises of
Glass"A beautiful--and necessary--book. Celan's charred radiance
shines through every page."--Richard Sieburth, translator of "Hymns
and Fragments
