Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Luminous, surreal, and suffused with a meditative calm, the selected poems of the Nobel Prize-winning poet who defined late-20th century Scandinavian verseOver the course of his career, Tomas Transtr mer - a poet who could look on the barren isolation of Sweden's landscapes and seascapes like no other, and find in them something hauntingly transcendent - emerged as one of the 20th century's essential global voices. By the time he won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2011, his luminous, almost mystical work had been translated into more than 50 languages.Gathering his poems from the early, nature-focused work to the later poetry's widening of the scope to take in painting, travel, urban life, and the impositions of technology on the natural world, and stirred throughout by the poet's profound love of music, The Half-Finished Heaven is a unique selection from Transtr mer's work. It is also, in its way, a deeply intimate one- the poems hand-picked here are not only the most beloved, but also those which were translated in the course of Transtr mer's nearly thirty-year correspondence with his close friend and collaborator, the American poet Robert Bly. Few names are more strongly associated with Transtr mer's; and few people have understood not only his poetry, but the processes behind it, more profoundly. The result is perhaps the best English-language introduction to this great and strange poet's work that there could be.
