Synopsis

A generous selection of work by Miodrag Pavlovic. He is the third of the Serbian triumvirate of Popa, Lalic and Pavlovic which transformed Serb poetry in the 1950s. Pavlovic has been translated and published in English in book form and in pamphlets in Canada, but never before in from a British publisher. Nenad Aleksic and James Sutherland-Smith provide these astonishing new translations taken from "Iskon" the first volume of Pavlovic's selected poems, produced under Miodrag's supervision.
