Poetry Foundation. Anne Carson is a poet, essayist, professor of Classics, and translator.
“In the small world of people who keep up with contemporary poetry,” wrote Daphne Merkin in the New York Times Book Review, Carson “has been cutting a large swath, inciting both envy and admiration.” Carson has gained both critical accolades and a wide readership over the course of her “unclassifiable” publishing career.
In addition to her many highly-regarded translations of classical writers such as Sappho and Euripides, and her triptych rendering of An Oresteia (2009), she has published poems, essays, libretti, prose criticism, and verse novels that often cross genres. Known for her supreme erudition—Merkin called her “one of the great pasticheurs”—her poetry can also be heart-breaking and she regularly writes on love, desire, sexual longing and despair. Though Carson is notoriously reticent about her personal life, it is known that she was born in Toronto, Ontario in 1950.

Jørgen Leth, 2016 Lugten af sne 2016: den 9. maj 2016.»Hvis man spørger folk, hvilken sans de helst vil undvære, så vil de fleste nok sige lugtesansen. Og det er jo lidt mærkeligt, for det er en sans vi navigerer efter. Vi skal skelne friskhed fra råd, vi kan lugte røg; det er en livsnødvendig sans,« siger digter Pia Tafdrup, der i LUGTEN AF SNE går i kødet på de både vidunderlige og rædselsfulde dufte og lugte, der omgiver os.

Quel oiseau Ne sais quel oiseaudans la fraîche broussaille du soir –un chant qui rappelle celui du merlemais avec plus d'allant, plus de nostalgie :écoute, j'ai plusieurs voix,toutes elles se fondenten une voix qui s'élèvecomme le jour se lève,une voix qui baissecomme le soleil baisse,elle se confond avec les bois,les lueurs de la nuit :miroir de la baie, sombres rivageset un silence créépour tous ces chantsqui se fondent en undans la fraîche broussaille du soir.
Ne sais quel oiseau. Visste inte vilken fågel Visste inte vilken fågeli de aftonsvala snåren –sången liknade en koltrastsmen med större håg och längtan :jag har många röster, lyssna,smältande i en tillsammans,stigande som dagen stiger,sjunkande som solen sjunkerblir den ett med skog och nattljus : vikens spegel, mörka stränderoch en stillhet gjord för sånger smältande i en tillsammansi de aftonsvala snåren. Visste inte vilken fågel. Seule, une lumière Ibid p.33 Une petite maison basse, silencieuse sous son manteau de neige. . (...) Ab ovo. Andrus Kivirähk - Biography. Andrus Kivirähk is a most remarkably prolific, innovative and powerful figure on the Estonian literary scene of today, probably the most beloved and talented Estonian writer nowadays.
He is a virtuoso who can easily shift from one style to another, producing short stories, newspaper columns, pamphlets and dramatic texts, writing for children and for TV, varying black humour with even unexpected tender sensitivity, making one smile through one’s tears. Born in 1970, Kivirähk has studied journalism at the University of Tartu, and now works in the daily paper Eesti Päevaleht, writing weekly columns. It is hard to say what is more popular – his drama texts, novels, short forms or the works written for children – which they love.
But Kivirähk´s texts for theatre are as important as the novels, and here his second novel Liblikas (Butterfly, 1999), tracing back the history of Estonian theatre, could be named as an interlude or transition – a delicate and beautiful one – to these.
