Peter Huchel (1903?1981) wrote amidst the political turmoil of modern Germany. Yet his particular style of realistic, lyrical verse, often deeply concerned with the people and landscape of the rural north German region in which he grew up, evaded easy categorization, whether in political or artistic terms. Translated by Michael Hamburger-a close friend of Huchel's-Anvil's bilingual edition of selected poems will help to bring this distinguished poet to a larger English-speaking readership.
The definitive English edition of one of Germany's greatest poets of the 20th century

Autorenporträt
Peter Huchel was born in a suburb of Berlin in 1903, but spent his formative years at his grandfather's farm in rural Brandenburg. He became a magazine editor until the oppressive East German regime eventually drove him into complete retirement in 1962. In 1971 he was allowed to resettle in West Germany, from which time he travelled widely. He died in 1981. Michael Hamburger was born in Berlin in 1924 and came to Britain as a child in 1933. He is the foremost translator of German poetry into English - among the many authors he has translated from are Hölderlin, Celan, Rilke and Goethe - and one of Britain's leading poets of the period since World War 2.
