The latest in Arc’s Translation Series brings poems from Sigurdur Pálsson’s ten collections written between 1980 and 2008 to an English-speaking audience.
Swirling with imagery, they reveal a poet committed to unearthing the joy of living and its connections to the natural world.
This is a thrilling sweep across Pálsson’s work: chronologies are upset, ideas run amok, views out onto the world close and open.
