By (author) Tom Phillips





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

 Artistically and politically radical, Bulgarian poet, translator and activist Geo Milev (1895–1925) produced an astonishing array of work over the course of his short life and yet very little of it is readily available in English translation. Once there was Spring contains new translations of all his major poems and prose poems, from the early Symbolist cycle ‘The Cruel Ring’ and First World War prose sequence ‘By Doiran Lakee’to his modernist reworking of Bulgarian folksongs ‘The Icons are Sleeping’ and his most famous work, the radical anarcho-communist epic ‘September’.
