Hungarian Poetry (Folk, Classical and Modern) in English: 1000 years (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781039182417)

An accomplished poet and the author of Canadian Hungarian Literature (1897 - 2017), Frank Veszely brings to the English reader the rich treasure-house of folk, classical, and modern Hungarian poetry (1000 - 2020). The translations read as if they have been done by the original poets, preserving not only their original inspiration and content, but the form, the rhythm and the rhyme patterns of the originals, a feat thought to be impossible by many, but here they are: as fresh as the ink has not dried on them yet. From the poems emerges a nation's love of freedom with the breath and depth of humanity impossible not to respond to.
