The poems in this book cite instants of contemplation, crucial if unremarkable moments in the lives of the poet's heroes - Schubert, Simone Weil, Mozart and Bruckner - and in his own experience. The minutiae of daily life are pitted against the more sinister moments of politics and history. Adam Zagajewski is the author of "Tremor".
