A bilingual edition - in Finnish, and in English of Leevi Lehto - of a seminal work of the Second Generation Finnish Modernist poetry, by the virtuoso poet Jyrki Pellinen - a "description of life" that "is not tender", an account of the "agony of coming into the world", of a becoming-a-poet-as-a-thing in a process of endless dismemberment, struggling "among creatures of my own size, castle lords, furuncle-faces, robberly inclined, old women, and other such objects of nature".
