Another Language: Selected Poems provides an essential introduction to the work of a poet at the center of postmodern writing in American. Rosmarie Waldrop stands at the cutting edge of postmodern poetics. Widely published by Random House and New Directions, among others, she can claim a place in the front rank of American poets whose work is determining the future of American poetry. As the chief translator for Edmund Jabes, she is responsible for introducing to English-speaking readers one of the pivotal French poets of our time, and she is also known for acclaimed translations of work by Paul Celan, Emmanuel Hocquard, Jacques Roubaud, and Joseph Guglielmi. Waldrop, in short, is a principal link between the European and American avant-garde communities. Her publishing company, Burning Deck, has been a major venue for some of the most serious experimental work in recent American writing.Waldrop deserves and receives enormous respect from her peers. Anyone interested in the current look of the American avant-garde and its future would do well to begin here.
