The Man Who Brought Brodsky into English - Cynthia L. Haven

Brodsky's poetic career in the West was launched when Joseph Brodsky: Selected Poems was published in 1973. Its translator was George L. Kline, a Bryn Mawr professor and war hero. This is the story of that friendship and collaboration, from its beginnings in 1960s Leningrad and concluding with the Nobel poet's death.
