Περιγραφή για An English Anthology Leonard Nolens Carcanet Press Ltd Paperback / softback

`I was born in Belgium, I\'m Belgian. / But Belgium was never born in me.\' So writes Leonard Nolens in `Place and Date\', which captures a mood of political and social disillusionment amid a generation of Dutch-speaking Belgians. And throughout this selection we encounter a poet engaged with the question of national identity. Frequently the poet moves into that risky terrain, the firstperson plural, in which he speaks as and for a generation of Flemings, embodying an attitude towards artistic and political commitment that he considers its defining mark. `We curled up dejectedly in the spare wheel of May sixtyeight\', he writes in the selection\'s central sequence `Breach\'. Nolens\' poetry is haunted by giants of twentieth-century European lyricism, by Rilke, Valery, Neruda, Mandelstam and Celan, with whom he has arguably more affinity than with much poetry from the Dutch-language canon.
