Featuring English translations side-by-side with the originals, this volume contains the work of six of the most important modern and contemporary Dutch poets. Ranging in style from the rhetorical to the intensely lyrical, the work here includes examples of myth-influenced modernist verse, nature poetry, experimental poetry, and more.
