MONOLOGUE OF A DOG

"In this collection of contemplative, witty, and always surprising poems, Wislawa Szymborska writes with verve about everything from love unremembered to keys mislaid in the grass, from small-scale naughtiness to the happiness of skating on thin ice, from the district firemen's ball to the cosmos. Hers is an odd perspective, recorded with sparkling intelligence and a rare intensity of feeling. Another gift of remarkable poetry that will delight new and old readers alike." This is a bilingual edition.
