β¦ Synopsis
White pebble -- Bone to bone -- Games -- Give me back my rags -- The yawn of yawns -- Heaven's ring -- St. Sava's spring -- Homage to the lame wolf -- Wolf's earth -- The little box -- From Raw flesh.;"Vasko Popa is widely recognized as one of the great poets of the twentieth century, a riddling fabulist, whose work, taking its bearings fromt he songs and folklore of his native Serbia and from surrealism, has a dark gnomic, fatalistic humor and pathos that are like nothing else. Charles Simic, a master of contemporary american poetry, has been translating Popa's work for more than a quarter century. This revised and greatly expanded edition of Simic's Popa is a revelation."--
