Author Biography
Reinhold Grimm is on the board of The Germany Library and lives in Riverside, CA. Irmgard Hunt is a poet and teaches at Colorado State University, Fort Collins.
Reviews"As one would expect, the quality of the translations is universally of the highest order....there is no uniformity of style, technique, or methodology. This is, I think, one of the collection's strong points." --Trans-Lit, Summer & Winter 2002
