Songbird of the South. Icelandic translations by Þorsteinn Gylfason.
Here you will find many poetic gems in Þorsteinn Gylfason's soulful and precise translations, poems by major poets such as Shakespeare, Goethe and Pushkin, but also by lesser-known poets such as Piet Hein and Tove Ditlevsen. The book also includes translations of quite a few Spanish folk songs. The second part of the book is dedicated to the German poet Bertolt Brecht. The poems are published in the original language alongside the translations so that readers can compare the translations with the originals for their own entertainment and information.
