Descriere An Unchanging Blue: Selected Poems 1962-1975 - Rolf Dieter Brinkmann

Brinkmann, Rolf: - Rolf Dieter Brinkmann was born in Vechta, Germany, in 1940, in the midst of World War II, and died in 1975, in London, England, after being struck by a hit-and-run driver. During his lifetime, Brinkmann published nine poetry collections, four short story collections, several radio plays, and a highly acclaimed novel. He also edited and translated two important German-language anthologies of contemporary American poetry (primarily Beat and New York School, for which Brinkmann had a particular affinity), and translated Frank O'Hara's LUNCH POEMS into German, as well as a collection of poems by Ted Berrigan, entitled Guillaume Apollinaire ist Tot. In May, 1975, just a few weeks after his death, Brinkmann's seminal, parameter- expanding poetry collection Westwarts 1 & 2 appeared, which was posthumously awarded the prestigious Petrarca Prize.
