Product Description
Radnoti spent the last years of his short life in various labor camps, and was brutally murdered just before the end of World War II. When a mass grave was exhumed in 1945, several of the poems included in this volume were found in a notebook on his corpse. His poetry powerfully projects his clear awareness of his inelectable fate, of the poet's role as "the one whose death is decreed./ because he's never killed for them."
