Love in London

FROM THE PUBLISHER

Love in London contains a selection of the most representative poems written by the Austrian poet Theodor Kramer (1897-1958), while he was in exile in England from 1939 to 1957. This bilingual edition with verse translations is the result of an intensive, four-year collaboration between the Vienna-born, New York-based poet-translator Frederick (Fritz) Brainin (1913-1992), and the German-born, Nottingham-based Germanist Jorg Thunecke. Kramer's poems reflect the changing moods of an exiled German-speaking writer in response to complex problems faced before, during, and after World War II. In addition, these translations offer excellent examples of the poetic diction of the late Brainin.
