Product Information
Czeslaw Milosz (1911-2004) often seemed austere and forbidding to Americans, but those who got to know him found him warm, witty, and endlessly enriching. An Invisible Rope: Portraits of Czeslaw Milosz presents a collection of remembrances from his colleagues, his students, and his fellow writers and poets in America and Poland. Milosz's oeuvre is complex, rooted in twentieth-century eastern European history. A poet, translator, and prose writer, Milosz was a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, from 1961 to 1998. In 1980 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. The earliest in this collection of thirty-two memoirs begins in the 1930s, and the latest takes readers to within a few days of Milosz's death. This vital collection reveals the fascinating life story of the man Joseph Brodsky called "one of the greatest poets of our time, perhaps the greatest." Contributors include: Bogdana Carpenter, Clare Cavanagh, Anna Frajlich, Natalie Gerber, George G m ri, Irena Grudzioska Gross, Hynryk Grynberg, Dan Halpern, Robert Hass, Seamus Heaney, Jane Hirshfield, Agnieszka Kosioska, John Foster Leich, Madeline G. Levine, Richard Lourie, Zygmunt Malinowski, Morton Marcus, Jadwiga Maurer, W. S. Merwin, Leonard Nathan, Robert Pinsky, Alexander Schenker, Peter Dale Scott, Marek Skwarnicki, Judith Tannenbaum, Elizabeth Kridl Valkenier, Lillian Vallee, Tomas Venclova, Helen Vendler, Reuel K. Wilson, Joanna Zach, and Adam Zagajewski

Reviews
"These vivid portraits and memoirs, these intimacies rescued from oblivion, tie us more closely to one of the great poets and spiritual presences of the 20th century. An Invisible Rope is an indispensable compendium." --Edward Hirsch, author of The Living Fire: New and Selected Poems, "The reader comes away feeling as if she knows this person as a man--no longer merely the picture of a legend. It compels the reader to revisit even his most well-known works, from The Captive Mind to Road-Side Dog , to be read anew, refreshed by the contextualization of a life lived."-- The Cosmopolitan Review, "( An Invisible Rope ) will delight Milosz readers with gossip and add anecdotal texture to his image as a great Polish poet in Californian exile, who made a triumphant return to Cracow in his old age.... The common themes include Milosz's roaring laughter and insatiable appetite, enduring desire for literary fame, and sense of loneliness."-- Times Literary Supplement, "In the wake of his death in 2004, the poetry of Czeslaw Milosz seems more permanent than ever. Yet the creator of that poetry-the human being who spent much of his life wrestling with loneliness, obscurity, and a punishing form of linguistic exile-has already begun to recede into literary history. We should be grateful, then, for the reminiscences that Cynthia Haven has collected in An Invisible Rope . The reader is offered glimpses of Milosz in his salad days and in his post-Nobel splendor, in Wilno and Berkeley, Washington and Krakow. The result is a vivid, kaleidoscopic portrait of the man whom Adam Zagajewski calls 'an ecstatic poet and ecstatic person.'" -James Marcus, author of Amazonia and Deputy Editor, Harper's Magazine , "(A)n exquisite collection of thirty-two memoirs.... I highly recommend it to fellow poets or scholars who are 'new' to (Milosz) because it can deepen the appreciation for his work prior to reading more of it. This book is the ultimate 'back story.'"-- New Pages, "In the wake of his death in 2004, the poetry of Czeslaw Milosz seems more permanent than ever. Yet the creator of that poetry--the human being who spent much of his life wrestling with loneliness, obscurity, and a punishing form of linguistic exile--has already begun to recede into literary history. We should be grateful, then, for the reminiscences that Cynthia Haven has collected in An Invisible Rope . The reader is offered glimpses of Milosz in his salad days and in his post-Nobel splendor, in Wilno and Berkeley, Washington and Krakow. The result is a vivid, kaleidoscopic portrait of the man whom Adam Zagajewski calls 'an ecstatic poet and ecstatic person.'" --James Marcus, author of Amazonia and Deputy Editor, Harper's Magazine , This collection is a must for everyone aspiring to know Milosz and his work. Summing Up: Highly recommended. -- Choice|9780804011334|, "There is something... in this book which is akin to eavesdropping on (a) social gathering of Czeslaw Milosz and his friends reminiscing over good food and drink.... An Invisible Rope is a very strong collection.... a captivating and human portrait of the poet and his life."-- Sarmatian Review
