Leonard Kress on Zbigniew Herbert

I got a note from Polish-American poet Leonard Kress about a recent posting he did about Herbert at his blog, Myshkin2. The article is a response to an article titled "The Testament of Mr. Cogito" by Alissa Valles, Herbert's translator, that appeared in the Boston Review.

Leonard's posting is at his site: http://myshkin2.typepad.com/ and the article by Allisa Valles is at http://bostonreview.net/BR32.6/valles.php
