Tideline - Paperback
by Krystyna Dąbrowska (Author), Karen Kovacik (Translator), Antonia Lloyd-Jones (Translator)
Krystyna Dąbrowska is an award-winning younger Polish poet whose poems convey a profound curiosity about the world, not only expressed by the lyric speaker but by those inside the poems -- two owls guarding their nest, or a dog at the beach, or blind visitors in a museum. Her work and use of language so captivated the three translators that they decided to collaborate on this collection together. Many poems address daily life; others delve into the Holocaust, family relationships, and travels -- to Cairo, Georgia, Jerusalem. Tideline is her first book in English, presented bilingually with the original Polish.
Co-translator Mira Rosenthal is poet, translator, and past fellow of the National Endowment for the Arts and Stanford University's Stegner Fellowship. Her translation of Polish poet Tomasz Różycki's collection, Colonies (Zephyr Press, 2013), was shortlisted for the 2014 Griffin International Poetry Prize and won the 2015 Northern California Book Award. Her work appears regularly in such journals as Poetry, Ploughshares, Threepenny Review, Yale Review, and elsewhere. Her first book of poems, The Local World, received the Wick Poetry Prize. She lives in Los Osos, California.
