A group of poems from the core member of the Vienna Group and one of Europe’s most intrepid avant-garde writers, this collection contains more than 300 poems from seven decades of writing. The poems are true to the legacies of romanticism and surrealism and exhibit the poet’s ability to push the limits of convention to reveal a deeper structure of existence, ranging from elation to abyss.
