Lithuania's Tomas Venclova is one of Europe's greatest living
poets. His work speaks with a moral depth exceptional in
contemporary poetry. His poetry addresses the desolate landscape of
the aftermath of totalitarianism, as well as the ethical constants
that allow for hope and perseverance. The Junction brings together
entirely new translations of his most recent work as well as a
selection of poems from his 1997 volume Winter Dialogue. Tomas
Venclova was born in 1937 in Klaipeda, Lithuania. He was one of the
five founding members of the Lithuanian Helsinki Group and his
activities led to a ban on publishing, exile, and the stripping of
his Soviet citizenship in 1977. Since 1985 Venclova has taught
Slavic languages and literature at Yale University.
