Whether Art Will Ever / Granice Sztuki: Holocaust Poems / Wiersze O Zagladzie William Heyen

Poetry. Translated by Tomasz Marek Sobieraj and Jacek Åswierk. Edited by Joan Digby and Stanley H. Barkan. These thirteen poems are memory of the victims of the Holocaust, including the Japanese who suffered the bombings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They are presented bilingually (English-Polish), perhaps, in part, most appropriately, since so many of the victims who suffered in the camps were situated in Poland. The Polish translators are humanists who grieve for the victims and their families.
