Selected Poems of Oksana Zabuzhko - Paperback

by Oksana Zabuzhko (Author)

Clytemnestra plotting her husband's murder, Ophelia criticizing her creator, and a report from Chernobyl all offer the poet occasions for reflections marked by a sophisticated wit and a philosophical probing reminiscent of Wislawa Szymborska or Adam Zagajewski. By turns urgent and ironic, Zabuzhko's poetry stands alongside the finest and most important work to emerge from Europe in the last half century.
