Two Poems
Pearl — these are stunning . Your translations of Sutskever have a lightness to them (not speaking feeling but language) that often is missing in others. Wonderful and thank you!
Thank you for this generous praise, Owen! There seems to be something about Sutzkever for me. He's fun and easy to translate.
Oh pearl, those are lovely. So many thrilling lines. From my cellar view, the stars spark in the dark.
thank you, Dan. This praise means much coming from you, a translator!
Enchanting. You're right. They do sing.
