^ Great little label - nicely designed books, interesting choices - what are your favourite titles?

this seems out of character for you

haha why?

I bought the Petrarch and Trakl - want to get hold of the Villon and Goethe.

i get what thomp means – good on translations, but the English part of the list is quite conservative mid-C20th stuff – solid 3rd division sorts who get a poem or two in The Oxford/Penguin/Faber Book Of Whatever (eg Peter Levi, F T Prince)

The translations are what got my attention.

if you have any interest in German poetry, definitely check out the Michael Hamburger Holderlin translations--gone thru something like 5 editions, and to my knowledge there is still not a better or more-comprehensive collection available in English

thanks woof! yeah that's what I meant I was just feeling lazy about showing my workings
