Poems new and collected - Wistawa Szymborska

Described by Robert Hass as "unquestionably one of the great living European poets" and by Charles Simic as "one of the finest poets living today," Wistawa Szymborska mesmerizes her readers with poetry that captivates their minds and captures their hearts. Poems New and Collected is the definitive collection of her verse, presented in a translation that was awarded the PEN Translation Prize for its beauty and integrity. Also included is the full text of her speech of December 7, 1996, accepting the Nobel Prize for Literature in Stockholm.
