There are fabled meetings with the likes of G nter Grass in Berlin and Paul Celan in Paris (not to mention the stray run-in with secret police in Bucharest before the fall of Ceausescu ). But Friebert also includes a sparkling homage to his late colleague, the co-founder of \u003cem\u003eUmbra\u003c\/em\u003e (with Langston Hughes and Alice Walker), Calvin Hernton. The volume richly concludes with an expert's guide to teaching literary translation. Friebert sweeps us off to another time, a parallel universe where societies heed writers and their words, and in that, he has wrought something extraordinary. 'Do you know where this is going?' as one poem playfully asks.
