Summary:

Vasko Popa is one of the great European poets of the period since the Second World War. From surrealist fable to traditional folk-tale, from personal anecdote to tribal myth, Popa's poetry embodies in an original form the most profound imaginative truths of our time, precisely located in the reality and history of Serbia, in the heart of Central Europe. His Collected Poems is an essential work for our time. Revised and expanded by Francis Jones from the late Anne Pennington's original translation, this publication represents the complete corpus of Popa's published poetry collections.
