A Translator Remains Faithful
Imagine a world without the benefit of translation--the Bible is available only in Greek, Garcia Marquez's "One Hundred Years of Solitude" only in Spanish. You could read Dante's "Inferno" if you knew Italian, or Kafka's "The Trial" with a sure command of German.
Poem/After Pina (for Wim Wenders)
Balancing branches on his shoulders,
A man stacking chairs
Three stories high
