Synopsis
The first selected volume in English of Zuzanna Ginczanka, a visionary Polish-Ukrainian-Jewish poet of the inter-war years whose life was cut short by the Holocaust. Translated by Alex Braslavsky with an introduction by Yusef Komunyakaa. Ginczanka's surreal and mythologically-informed poetry appeared at a time in Poland when Jewish poets like Julian Tuwim were at the helm of the avant-garde in the Skamander poetic movement. Her 1936 collection On Centaurs was released to great acclaim when she was barely 20 years old. Dubbed "Tuwim in a skirt" by her contemporaries, Ginczanka's youth, gender, and Jewish background posed challenges to her career in the Polish literary world of her time. She disguised herself as Catholic, but ultimately fell victim to the Holocaust in 1945. The hybrid identities she was forced to embody seeped into her poetry, which conjoins biblical imagery to idiosyncratic geological, cosmological and botanical obsessions. Published in a bilingual edition, with a preface by Yusef Komunyakaa and an introduction by translator Alex Braslavsky, ON CENTAURS AND OTHER POEMS introduces the full scope of Ginzcanka's poetic vision and prophetic voice to English-language readers for the first time., The first selected volume in English of Zuzanna Ginczanka, a visionary Polish-Ukrainian-Jewish poet of the inter-war years whose life was cut short by the Holocaust.

A poet of a tragic biography, Ginczanka sings history with unparalleled sublimity, irony, and anguish." --VALZHYNA MORT "A gorgeous and important book, overdue in English." --JENNIFER CROFT \\ "Something miraculous shines through these poems, even in their most tragic moments. Braslavsky dexterously conveys the intricacies of Ginczanka's grammar and sensuous imagery in a masterful translation." --KAREEM JAMES ABU-ZEID \\ "Alex Braslavsky has given us a great gift in bringing into English the magical poetry of Zuzanna Ginczanka." --BILL JOHNSTON \\ "Ginczanka's poetry is even more pressing now than when she was writing in the years leading up to and during the Second World War. As Ginczanka concealed her Jewish identity under many guises -- to keep living, keep writing -- so too, each of her poems is transformative of the lyric imagination." --JULIA KOLCHINSKY DASBACH \\ Jewish Studies. Holocaust Studies. Modernist Studies. Women's Studies. Poetry. Slavic & East European Studies. Translation.

    I do apologize. We have been moving all of our eBay inventory home from storage lockers and it has been massive. Over 80,000 books. We thought we had it under control until a few boxes got misplaced. One more load this Wednesday and it's done. Again we do apologize for the delay and definitely appreciate your purchase. Delayed shipping is not how we do things normally.
