Praise
“Pey’s haunting, inspired collection captures the lives of refugees fleeing the Spanish Civil War…Throughout this remarkable collection, Pey’s startling and memorable images have a poetic logic, building complexity and nuance into the characters’ cries for freedom. This masterful collection stands with the best fiction about war refugees.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“Lyrical, oneiric, wrenching . . . [The collection’s] beauty speaks to the collective, if precarious, survival of clandestine, resistant communities who, for all the violence they have suffered, refuse to be defined by it.” — Carlos Varón González, Public Books
• ”Donald Nicholson-Smith’s translations hold fast to this poetry’s unnerving eloquence and simplicity, and its hell-for-leather speed.” – T.J Clark on In Praise of Defeat (shortlisted for the 2017 Griffen Poetry Prize)
• ”Presenting the text en face, translator Donald Nicholson-Smith navigates the poet’s many styles and moods with poise and opens this landmark writer’s body of work up to nonfrancophone readers.” – World Literature Today on In Praise of Defeat
