Reviews / Votes
This gathering of translations from the pages of the Hudson Review is a testament to a far-reaching editorial vision that for more than sixty years has brought so much of the rest of the world to American readers and writers.-Geoffrey Brock, author of Weighing Light""A monument to the good taste, longevity, and value of the Hudson Review. . . . There are poems and plays here that will positively delight readers, inform them, and make them think about what it means to try to do justice to a work of genius in another language.""-Brian M. Reed, author of Hart Crane: After His Lights
