i'm not sure who translated the poem for collection where i've read it from, and i'll first have to go to library to look it after (since i borrowed that book), but i'll let you know. i didn't suggest ANY differences in content; the difference i noted was in different choice of words (some croatian ...

This is the single most entertaining thread I've seen since joining this forum!!! I agree that Lizzytysh should be praised for her devoted work, and Georges brings life to the forum. There's Tom with incredible devotion to Leonards works, and mr. McGeever with incredible devotion to his own poetic p...

Paula, Dylan HAS NOT LOST HIS EDGE!!! Dylan wrote some of his best works in last few years: Highlands, Things Have Changed, Summer Days ... He didn't lose his edge even in the 80-is, no matter what other people say. Evidence: Jokerman, Blind Willie McTell, Bronsville Girl, Man In The Long Black Coat...
