A History of Clouds: 99 Meditations, by Martin Chalmers, Hans Magnus Enzensberger, Esther Kinsky
remembered_reads's review against another edition
3.0
I'm always unsure of how to rate translated poetry that's published without the original alongside the translation. Without the ability to judge whether or not rhythm or rhyme elements might have been lost in translation, is there any fair way to judge the end product?
Still, the poetry - much of which plays with themes of averages, medians, and the mediocre - was a worthwhile read.
