Summary
Vasko Popa: From the Golden Apple
Description from the cover: "Our folk poetry flourished and matured in the very heart of centuries-old nights. During the dark ages, the golden age of our literature was created. Our classics are the only and true. The period of our literature that shines from unfathomable distances with its wondrous beauty and which has not stopped and will never stop illuminating poetic creation on this handful of land under this sky. Folk the poet still seems to be at one with nature, he still hears how the flowers grow, how the stars multiply. In his song, the earth and the sun themselves open up with a human voice. His rhythms also express the very play of the sun's rays and the branches. Through his eyes, the stone and the tree themselves grow as only he, the man-poet, can grow."
