Description

“Complete one-volume edition of Czeslaw Milosz’s prose writings available in English. Spanning more than half a century of his work, the essays, several of which have never before been translated, present Milosz the prose writer in all his multiple guises. His extraordinary thematic breadth and his command of a diversity of styles and genres are displayed throughout this collection: the incisive, sardonic analyst of the seductive power of Communism is also the author of tender, elegiac portraits of friends famous and obscure; the witty commentator on Polish complexes writes lyrically of the California landscape.
