Product Description
Against the Forgetting presents the work of an important twentieth-century Dutch poet, Hans Faverey. The first extensive selection of his poetry in English, this collection brings together poems from his eight published volumes of poetry spanning the years 1968 to 1990 the last volume, Default, he received only two days before his death. In addition, a selection of poems from a posthumous collection, Spring Foxes, first published in Holland in 2000, is also included. The translator Francis Jones writes, "Hans Faverey left behind a poetic structure of uniquely subtle richness and beauty, made from so little a few words, surrounded by silence." Filled with a precision and arresting musicality comparable to the hermetic poems of Celan and Bronk, and as mysterious as the writings of Heraclitus and the German mystic Meister Eckhart, Faverey's poems, like Lichtenberg's lightning frozen in time, lash out, splintering systems and syntax enlightening.

DESCRIPTION - AGAINST THE FORGETTING presents the work of the Netherlands' most eminent twentieth-century poet, Hans Faverey. This collection brings together poems from his eight published volumes spanning the years 1968 to 1990 as well as a selection of poems from a posthumous collection, SPRING FOXES, first published in Holland in 2000. Filled with a precision and arresting musicality comparable to the hermetic poems of Celan and Bronk, and as mysterious as the writings of Heraclitus and the German mystic Meister Eckhart, Faverey's poems, like Lichtenberg's lightning frozen in time, lash out, splintering systems and syntax - enlightening. 'Hans Faverey made his reputation only gradually. He is a poet of losses and silences, of meditations on change and how change either undermines or strengthens our sense of reality.' - Edwin Morgan. 'In the world he has left behind, I still feel the presence of Hans Faverey like the proximity of a dangerous wound. In Rotterdam I took part in a translation project devoted to his work. He had only a few weeks to live. The light, the secret wound, the beauty, the reflection of the approaching end - all of this has remained for me as the painful light emitted by his poetry.' - Gennady Aygi. inventory #37311.
