{"product_id":"selected-poems-1976-96-oxford-poets-s","title":"Selected Poems, 1976-96 (Oxford Poets S.)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis collection, selected by George Szirtes himself from a period of at least twenty years, has been culled from all seven of his published poetry books, several of which are now unavailable. His three major sequences of poems, \"The Photographer in Winter,\" \"Metro,\" and a slightly revised\n\"Transylvana,\" are included in full. Szirtes has built a reputation not only as an energetic, generous, and skillfull translator from Hungarian, but above all as a brilliant and austere poet in his own right. He wields English with the particular skill, strangeness, and originality of one who\nmediates between the tone of his forebears and the voice he has acquired since childhood, when his family moved to England at the time of the Hungarian uprising.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780192832238\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £754.80","offer_id":47958418063537,"sku":"SB-0192832239-C3","price":754.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/selected-poems-1976-96-oxford-poets-s","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
