Derived from old papers, notes, jottings, photos, and letters that the poet stumbled upon years later in his attic, the volume is not so much about the man, but rather the many places he visited and people whom he met on his travels through the Soviet Union and Cuba during the 1960s. The book is made up of four long-form pieces written from 1963 to 1970, each episode concluding with a poem and postscript written in 2014. Translated by Mike Mitchell, the book is a lively and deftly written travelogue offering a glimpse into the history of leftist thought. Dedicated to \"those who disappeared,\" \u003ci\u003eTumult\u003c\/i\u003e is a document of that which remains one of humanity's headiest times. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hans Magnus Enzensberger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1803090448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781803090443\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Seagull Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Hans Magnus Enzensberger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44073299902719,"sku":"9781803090443","price":14.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_307807aa-7c02-425f-80bb-680dacf5dc49.jpg?v=1685447014","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tumult-hans-magnus-enzensberger-9781803090443","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
