The Bookaholics' Guide to Book Blogs: "Mark Thwaite ... has a maverick, independent mind"

Manson's Mallarmé

We’ve shared our enthusiasm with you before about Peter Manson’s new and long-awaited translations of Mallarmé’s The Poems in Verse (Miami University Press 2012), which have just been reviewed at The Guardian.

David Wheatley writes: “This is an exceptional translation, ranking alongside John Ashbery’s Rimbaud, Mark Ford’s Roussel, and Michael Hofmann’s Durs Grünbein.” High praise!

From the Poetry Foundation.
