When I spoke
they said I was mute;
when I wrote
they said I was blind;
when I left them
they said I was lame.
When they were calling me back
they found out I was deaf.
They turned my senses upside-down
and came to the conclusion I was crazy.
Now I am happy.

Window To The Soul Of An Unknown Culture,
By Carol Parker (Santa Fe, New Mexico) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Embers in the House of Night (Paperback)
In recent years, we have become familiar with televised pictures of a Europe that few Americans could place on a map. How lucky we are, then, that Sonja Kravanja has honored us with her masterful translations of the poet Edvard Kocbek, and thereby an introduction to the literature of her native Slovenia. Few translators have the ability to literally place the reader inside the thoughts of an author, yet this is what Kravenja has done. A rare and deeply emotional body of work, a window into the mind of a remarkable Eastern European poet.

Sonja Kravanja has chosen excellent Kocbek poems.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Embers in the House of Night (Paperback)
Kravanja's translation of Kocbek's poems is wonderful. Each poem is distinctive - full of insight and understanding. Most impressive, however, is how incredibly beautiful the poetry is.
