Reviews

"Knox's first-rate talent as a translator remains in evidence on every page, even and especially when the text of more than a few poems is unapologetically risque . Kudos to Peter Knox for pulling no punches. And plaudits to him for superb work all around."-William J. Kennedy, Renaissance Quarterly
