Synopsis
Now in his mid-seventies, distinguished poet, critic and translator Anthony Rudolf has amassed a lifetime's worth of work, presented here in this latest collection. For over five decades, Rudolf has weaved and nurtured literary connections between Britain and Europe, drawing on his Jewish heritage and affinity for Jewish, French and Russian culture to inform his poetry. A respected translator of the works of Yves Bonnefoy, Vigée, Jabès, Vinokourov and Tvardovsky, and the author of books of literary criticism on Primo Levi, Piotr Rawicz and others, Rudolf is truly an international writer and thinker, generous in his output and original in a conformist age.

European Hours
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. For more than five decades Anthony Rudolf has been active as translator, critic, editor, and publisher: all in all, an enabler of writers and readers. His own poems come to him gradually, under pressure of real themes and subjects, refined by the disciplines of translation and co-translation. Reluctant to let a poem go, Rudolf loves to inhabit the process of writing and re-writing. European Hours represents a life's work severely curated. The poems, prose texts, and prose poems which make the cut, from 1964 to 2016, are diverse in form, and run parallel to his highly praised volumes of memoirs. George Mackay Brown, reviewing Rudolf in the Scotsman, noted his 'fine exact craftsmanship: no word or syllable wasted, so that each image is stark and true'. Robin Skelton in the Malahat Review spoke of his work as 'witty, precise, beautifully cadenced, and courageously exploratory'. Reflecting on his own influences, Rudolf mentions James Wright, Robert Creeley and Ian Hamilton early on; and later, Central and East European poets including Paul Celan, Miroslav Holub and Vasko Popa, as well as the American Objectivists.
