View with a Grain of Sand: Selected Poems by Wisława Szymborska

challenging emotional funny inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

5.0

This is one of my favorite books of poetry, up there with Eliot's "Four Quartets." Works range from whimsical to heartachingly beautiful. I only wish I spoke Polish to hear them in her mother tongue. The translators have done a wonderful job though, as the amazing wordplay of "The Onion" reflects.
