Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"Zagajewski's poetic evolution is clearly charted in WITHOUT END....The world is flux and, as he explores it, Zagajewski's variety of tone is remarkable...Zagajewski's work does, in fact, display a Brahmsian richness of color, intricacy of rhythm and the occasional use of ambiguous tonality -- all in the service of an inward urgency, powerfully captured in these translations. Even if English cannot recreate the autumnal rustling of the original Polish, these renderings -- by Clare Cavanagh and Renata Gorczynski, Benjamin Ivry and C. K. Williams -- have their own enchanting music, and the translators have consistently chosen elegant solutions for difficult passages. Such multifaceted writing can and should support a number of translations, and it is refreshing to see the work of different translators in peaceful coexistence within one book...Zagajewski's poems pull us from whatever routine threatens to dull our senses, from whatever might lull us into mere existence. This is an astonishing book, worth standing hours in line for, a book to sneak into the workplace or smuggle abroad, to ship to relatives in Houston or in Lwow."
Philip Boehm, New York Times Book Review, 05/05/2002
Review:"Adam Zagajewski's poems put us in the presence of great mysteries. They deliver us to something deep and strange and perhaps even unlimited within ourselves."
Edward Hirsch, Washington Post Book World, 05/26/2002

Book Description: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2002. Hardcover. Book Condition: Used: Like New. Near Fine w/Remainder Mark -- I love to swim in the sea, which keepstalking to itselfin the monotone of a vagabondwho no longer recallsexactly how long hes been on the road.Swimming is like prayer:palms join and part,join and part,almost without end.--from "On Swimming"Without End draws from each of Adam Zagajewski's English-language collections, both in and out of print--Tremor, Canvas, and Mysticism for Beginners--and features new work that is among his most refreshing and rewarding. These poems, lucidly translated, share the vocation that allows us, in Zagajewski's words, "to experience astonishment and to stop still in that astonishment for a long moment or two.".
