Product Description
Denmark 2002. Here is a collection from a best-selling author and poet, a popular convenor of assemblies of Nobel Laureates; the undoubted inventor of a form of small aphoristic verse called a Grook, which are short statements that appear self-evident as soon as they have been formulated. His grooks often open a small window on a large world. In his native Denmark Piet Hein is regarded as a national institution. Try to imagine a mixture of A.P. Herbert and C.P. Snow - a kind of A.P. Snowbert - and you will get somewhere near him. , English, Year2002, Illust. B/W185, Illust. Color, ISBN8721018618, Hardbound, Index. Pages195, Size7 1/2Óx 5Ó
