Product Description

This is Seifert's first collection published in English in the U.S.A. (translated from the Czech). A year later, in 1984, he won the Nobel Prize for literature. A year after that he passed away, but not before The Spirit That Moves Us Press also published his Mozart In Prague: Thirteen Rondels (in Czech and English) and Eight Days: An Elegy for Thomas Masaryk (in Czech and English).
