But if Neruda is blazing fire, Transtromer is expanding ice. \u003cem\u003eThe Great Enigma: New Collected Poems\u003c\/em\u003e gathers all the poems Tomas Transtromer has published, from his distinctive first collection in 1954, \u003cem\u003e17 Poems\u003c\/em\u003e, through his epic poem \u003cem\u003eBaltics\u003c\/em\u003e (\"my most consistent attempt to write music\"), and \u003cem\u003eThe Sad Gondola\u003c\/em\u003e, published six years after he suffered a debilitating stroke in 1990 (\"I am carried in my shadow \/ like a violin \/ in its black case.\"), to his most recent slim book, \u003cem\u003eThe Great Enigma\u003c\/em\u003e, published in Sweden in 2004. Also included is his prose-memoir \u003cem\u003eMemories Look at Me\u003c\/em\u003e, containing keys into his intensely spiritual, metaphysical poetry (like the brief passage of insect collecting on Runmaro Island when he was a teenager). Firmly rooted in the natural world, his work falls between dream and dream; it probes \"the great unsolved love\" with the opening up, through subtle modulations, of \"concrete words.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9780811216722\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9780811216722","offer_id":58680791892293,"sku":"9780811216722","price":18.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/73461_807db190-e1f9-46e0-9f6b-fde58182ef5b.jpg?v=1785038875","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/the-great-enigma-new-collected-poems-von-tomas-transtromer-ubersetzt-von-robin-fulton","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
