Nan Watkins’ new translation of Yvan Goll’s poems, Dreamweed, is so good we can’t put it down. Literary Aficionado agrees: “Nan Watkins is responsible for bringing this first English translation of the final poems of the brilliant 20th century poet Yvan Goll and such a gift it is. Her introduction to this collection almost stands alone as a novella/biography of this under known poet in the United States. It is extraordinary writing on the part of Nan Watkins…This is a very special book from Black Lawrence Press, a gift to English speaking audiences who have too long been deprived of Yvan Goll’s genius.” Buy it here.
