Summary: New and Collected Poems: 1931-2001 celebrates seven decades of Czeslaw Milosz's exceptional career. Widely regarded as one of the greatest poets of our time, Milosz is a master of probing inquiry and graceful expression. His poetry is infused with a tireless spirit and penetrating insight into fundamental human dilemmas and the staggering yet simple truth that "to exist on the earth is beyond any power to name." Czeslaw Milosz worked with the Polish Resistance movement in Warsaw during World War II and defected to France in 1951. Digging among the rubble of the past, Milosz forges a vision that encompasses pain as well as joy.
