Hymns and Fragments Reviews
Richard Sieburth, Winner of a 2017 Arts and Letters Award in Literature, American Academy of Arts and Letters Mr. Sieburth ... has set out to represent the movement, the rush and swirl of Holderlein's verse, his fast-spilling lines, and he seems to me to have succeeded remarkably well.--New York Times Book Review This is an admirable work. It reads like poetry, which is not true of all translations. The introduction and the notes are extremely valuable.--Liesel Mueller, Translator of Selected Later Poems of Marie Luise Kaschnitz
