Edited by scholar Emery George, the anthology brings together poets from countries including Hungary, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Yugoslavia, offering English-language readers rare access to works that were frequently suppressed or overlooked in the West. The collection illustrates the remarkable range of styles and sensibilities flourishing under socialist regimes — from lyrical intimacy to biting political dissent — and stands as a vital document of cultural resistance and artistic endurance. George's meticulous editorial work, which includes translations and contextual notes, makes this an indispensable resource for students and enthusiasts of world literature and modern European history alike.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48888031084763,"sku":"2026100006761-SECONDHAND","price":50.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9a7f6a80-1767-49cc-bdfb-50701bf6b056.png?v=1781753391","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100006761-secondhand-contemporary-east-european-poetry-an-anthology","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
