To That Which Ends Not

Více o knize

Exploring the depths of grief, this work combines sharp poetic prose with philosophical reflections following the death of Michel Deguy's wife of forty years. Rather than a tranquil elegy, it vividly captures the raw anguish and disorientation that follow such a profound loss. Through fragmented memories and intimate details, Deguy engages with his own literary legacy and the broader traditions of thought and poetry, drawing connections from ancient to modern influences. The translation by Robert Harvey enhances the nuanced language and allusions throughout.
