Yves Bonnefoy, a perennial favorite for the Nobel Prize, has received numerous international awards, including the Kafka Prize and the European Prize for Poetry. Hoyt Rogers translates literary works from the French, German, and Spanish.
“Mr. Bonnefoy [is] often lauded, and rightly so, as France's
greatest living poet.”—Micah Mattix, Wall Street Journal
*Wall Street Journal*
“[A] handsome edition of Bonnefoy’s recent work . . . a stunning
presentation of a major poet.”—Jim Kates, Arts Fuse
*Arts Fuse*
“Second Simplicity . . . reveal[s] Bonnefoy’s remarkable
inventiveness and desire to accommodate whatever form of address is
called for, whether in verse or prose.”—Ron Slate, On the
Seawall

"Yves Bonnefoy is one of the rare poets in the history of
literature to have sustained the highest level of artistic
excellence throughout an entire lifetime—now more than half a
century of work, and still counting. These recent poems, superbly
translated by Hoyt Rogers, attest to his enduring greatness."—Paul
Auster
