Description
About the Book
The first English translation of one of the most important volumes of twentieth-century French poetry.Book Synopsis
In his foreword to Stone Lyre, Nancy Naomi Carlson's previous collection of René Char translations, Ilya Kaminsky praised "the intensity, the dream-like language, the gravity of tone, and the constant impression that one is reading not words in the language, but sparks of flames." Stone Lyre was a selection of poems from Char's numerous volumes of poems; Carlson's new Hammer with No Master is a discrete and continuous work, the first English translation of Char's Le marteau sans maître, first published in 1934 - a time of rumbling menace that our time resembles.Dimensions (Overall): 8.0 Inches (H) x 5.0 Inches (W) x .43 Inches (D)
