Description

Although he is now mostly remembered as a novelist, it is as a poet and a translator of poetry that Sandor Marai - the acclaimed author of 'Embers' and 'Conversations in Bolzano' - first made his name in the literary world. This collection, the first and only edition of Marai's poems in the English language - here presented in John M. Rudland's and Peter V. Czipott's brilliant verse translation - offers a comprehensive selection spanning the author's whole career and exemplifying his mastery of what he considered to be the highest form of literary expression.

About the Author
Sandor Marai (1900-89) was a Hungarian novelist, journalist and poet who lived in exile for the last fifty years of his life and is now considered one of his country's major twentieth-century writers.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
