Book First Edition
Original Wraps. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: No Jacket, as Issued. Alan Spain (Cover design) (illustrator). First Edition in English. Penguin Modern European Poets series - Penguin Catalogue No. D84. ***First printing of the first UK edition in English, published as a paperback original (PBO) in 1968. Translated from the Polish by Czeslaw Milosz, Peter Dale Scott, with an introduction by A. Alvarez. Cover design by Alan Spain. ***Very good in colour illustrated thin card covers, with the printed price of 4/6 on the back cover. The covers have some light edge wear and rubbing commensurate with age and handling, but no significant creases or tears. There is some light foxing to the covers, both inside and out, but the spine is unfaded and clean with no reading creases. Spine tight. Covers still quite bright. Internally also very good with no ownership details or annotations. As mentioned, there is some light foxing to the inside covers and also the first and last couple of pages. Paper stock lightly tanned but pages clean. No creases or tears. ***180mm x 108mm. 140 pages including a List of Translations, plus a two-page advert for Penguin Modern European Poets at the back of the book. ***'No country has suffered more of the brutalities of Communism and Fascism then Poland. Yet Zbigniew Herbert, the most classical of its poets, is neither nationalist nor Catholic. He speaks for no party. Avant=garde in manner, but controlled, precise, and honest in thought, he stands aside from the chaos all around him, ironically bent on survival. His is the voice of sanity.' ***'Penguin Modern European Poets is designed to present, in verse translations, the work of significant poets of this century for readers unfamiliar with the original languages. The series already includes Yevtushenko, Rilke, Apollinaire, Prévert, Quasimodo, a volume of Greek poets, and Miroslav Holub.' (Quotes taken from the back cover) ***A first printing of the true first edition, published as a paperback original, in the original card covers, in very good condition. One of the scarcer titles in the series, with the bonus of being part-translated by fellow Polish poet Czeslaw Milosz. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

Lengthy gift inscription to the previous owner present to the FFEP. Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid, boards clean with no wear present. Blessed is the nation that in the course of a century could give the world two poets of Czeslaw Milosz's and Zbigniew Herbert's scope. Doubly blessed is the English-reader, for in this volume he gets Zbigniew Herbert's work rendered by Czeslaw Milosz: like the poor, or better yet like nature herself, Polish genius takes care of its own. This collection of poems is bound for a much longer haul than any of us can anticipate. For Zbigniew Herbert's poetry adds to the biography of civilization the sensibility of a man not defeated by the century that has been most thorough, most effective in dehumanization of the species. Herbert's irony, his austere reserve and his compassion, the lucidity of his lyricism, the intensity of his sentiment toward classical antiquity, are not just trappings of a modern poet, but the necessary armor--in his case well-tempered and shining indeed--for man not to be crushed by the onslaught of reality. By offering to his readers neither aesthetic norethical discount, this poet, in fact, saves them frorn that poverty which every form of human eviI finds so congenial. As long as the species exists, this book will be timely. E-181; Penguin Modern European Poets, D104; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 140 pages.
