Grass's belief that an artist, however committed he may be in life, should be only a jester in art, is admirably practised in these poems in which fantasy, ingenuity and humour are substitutes for didacticism, and no word, thing or idea is too sacrosanct to be played with. Even in the recent controversial political poems, which come close to blurring his division between life and art, Grass's tremendous zest and sensuous response are felt.' ***'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, Holub, Herbert and Enzensberger.'

Hardback. Condizione: Good. There are anthologies that politely introduce a subject, and then there are anthologies that arrive with the quiet implication that the subject in question has already been through quite enough, thank you very much. Modern German Poetry 1910?1960 (1963), edited by Michael Hamburger and Christopher Middleton, belongs firmly in the latter category: a compact, serious-minded volume that gathers fifty years of poetry from a period that, as it happens, did not exactly lack for historical context. Spanning two world wars, shifting borders, intellectual upheaval, and the occasional collapse of civilisation, this collection does what any good anthology of modern German poetry must do: it presents work that is thoughtful, sometimes difficult, often precise, and occasionally inclined to stare directly at the reader with the unsettling confidence of someone who has seen rather more than they would care to explain. The poems here are not interested in being decorative. They are interested in being necessary , which is a slightly different proposition altogether. Hamburger and Middleton, both translators of considerable skill and restraint, have assembled a selection that aims to carry not just meaning but tone, rhythm, and the faintly elusive quality of voice across languages. The result is a book that reads as both a literary collection and a subtle act of mediation?an attempt to bring these poems into English without smoothing away the edges that make them what they are. It?s not always easy reading, but then again, neither was the period it represents. Published by MacGibbon and Kee in 1963, the volume has the reassuringly sober appearance of mid-century seriousness: no unnecessary flourishes, no attempt to seduce, just a straightforward presentation of content that assumes you are here for a reason. This particular copy is listed as Good , which in Crappy Old Books terms suggests a respectable amount of prior engagement. The cover may show some wear, the spine may have relaxed slightly, and the pages may carry the faint signs of readers who approached the text with a mixture of curiosity and determination. Nothing dramatic?just the quiet evidence of a book that has been read, or at least attempted. This is not a collection you skim lightly while waiting for a train, unless you are particularly committed to the idea. It is, however, the sort of book that rewards attention in its own time, offering moments of clarity, reflection, and the occasional line that lingers long after you?ve put it down. Whether you?re drawn to it out of academic interest, linguistic curiosity, or a sense that you ought to understand something of the poetry produced in such a consequential half-century, it does exactly what it sets out to do. A measured, thoughtful anthology that neither simplifies nor apologises, and a quietly effective way to suggest that your reading habits extend into territory where history and poetry have a habit of meeting, whether one is entirely ready for them or not.
