Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. 233 pages. Published in 2002. Retrospective collection of short essays. One of Wislawa Szymborska's finest achievements. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confused with all other… subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. There is NO equivalent edition in the Polish original. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Wislawa Szymborska's "Nonrequired Reading: Prose Pieces" in their felicitous English translation by Clare Cavanagh. That is to say, a great poet's mandatory prose. "Wislawa Szymborska's poems are admired around the world. Her unsparing vision, tireless wit, and deep sense of humanity are cherished by countless readers. Unknown to most of them, however, Szymborska also worked for several decades as a columnist, reviewing a wide variety of books under the unassuming title 'Nonrequired Reading'. As readers of her poems would expect, the pieces collected here are anything but ordinary. Reflecting the author's own eclectic tastes and interests, the pretexts for these ruminations range from books on wallpapering, cooking, gardening, and yoga to more lofty volumes on opera and world literature. Unpretentious yet incisive, these charming pieces are on a par with Szymborska's finest lyrics, tackling the same large and small questions with a wonderful curiosity" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Wislawa Szymborska collectors. This title is a great collection. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce copy thus. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1996. One of the greatest poet/writers of the 20th century. A fine copy.

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 198 pages. Published in 2004. The author's fourth collection of literary essays. One of the greatest literary books of our time. The first appearance of the title in English and in the United States. Precedes and should not be confuse…d with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Adam Zagajewski's "Obrona zarliwosci" in the definitive English translation by Clare Cavanagh. The masterly achievement of a poet-genius who writes rare poet's prose. These fourteen essays constitute Zagajewski's "defense": An engaging and witty blend of literary commentary and memoir, it is passionate about beleaguered aesthetic values yet refreshingly free of rancor. "Thoughtful; precise; rhapsodic; rueful; courteous; prone to wonder. Nothing could take the reader in a direction more contrary to today's cult of the excitements of self than to follow Zagajewski as he unspools his seductive praise of serenity, sympathy, forbearance, of the calm and courage of an ordinary life. Indispensable prose" (Susan Sontag). The only American writer of our time who has written a comparable polemic on behalf of literature-as-the ideal life is Cynthia Ozick, and it cannot be an accident that one of her classic books is "Art & Ardor" (1983). An absolute "must-have" title for Adam Zagajewski collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed, dated (in the year of publication), and inscribed in black ink-pen on the title page by the author: "To Heather, Adam Zagajewski [inscription in Polish], September 2004". It is also very prominently and beautifully signed, dated, and inscribed in blue ink-pen by the translator: "9-30-04 To Heather, with very best wishes, Clare Cavanagh". They signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great book. As far as we know, this is the only such double-signed, publication-year dated, and inscribed copy of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing (American) available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. One of the greatest poet/writers of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER ADAM ZAGAJEWKI AND WISLAWA SZYMBORSKA TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0374136300. Signed by Author.

The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Wislawa Szymborska's "Poems: New And Collected 1957-1997". The single most comprehensive collection of Szymborska's poetry translated into English. Includes the 100 poems from "View With A Grain of Sand", 64 newly translated poems, and her priceless Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech, "The Poet And The World", one of the greatest speeches ever given in the Academy's history. Szymborska's poems are among the most humane, most tender, and most beautiful ever written in our time, characterized by a self-effacing modesty, sparkling wit, deceptive simplicity, and depth of feeling. According to Szymborska, all poets are in a perpetual dialogue with the initial as well as the lasting epiphany, "I don't know" (the original title of her Nobel Prize Speech is "I Don't Know"). "We're extremely fortunate / not to know precisely / the kind of world we live in. / One would have / to live a long, long time / unquestionably longer / than the world itself" (Wislawa Szymborska). An absolute "must-have" title for Wislawa Szymborska collectors. This title is a great collection. It comes with a pristine copy of her "Tutaj" ("Here") Live Concert Recording, held on January 27, 2009, at Krakow Opera. Szymborska performed twelve of her greatest poems, now committed for posterity in a rare recording of her speaking/performing voice.

Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are subsequent printings. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare set thus. Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1996. One of the greatest poet/writers of the 20th century. A fine set.
