These translations are not simply the same poems in a different language; Cassells has crafted new poetry. The gentle and delicate rhythms of Parcerisas have been contracted into shorter lines that explore sharper cadences whilst Cassells carefully maintains a sensitive continuity in the opening feet. This is poetry for the ear first and the page second, Cassells has stronger consonants at his disposal, a resource that he skilfully exploits. The ultimate product of his labours is a short collection of poetry that reads and feels like a work of English Literature, a sensation that is perhaps the highest compliment one may bestow upon a Literary Translation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46458031997079,"sku":"9781622885435","price":1846.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781622885435.webp?v=1769183893","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/still-life-with-children-9781622885435","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
