'Austria-Hungary’s wartime experience is thus recast. No longer the last gasps of a dying empire, but a crucial period of transition and transformation that shaped Europe’s 20th century.'

Paul Celan: A Life by Anna Arno is a luminous, groundbreaking biography of the poet, drawing on a range of archival sources and new research.

For Poetry Month, in a new Q&A on our website, Arno reflects on her first encounter with Celan’s work, the ethical and emotional challenges of writing about his life, and the multilingual world that shaped his imagination: https://t.co/sIqmWvrFXp
