description: Written when he was only twenty-five before embarking on the masterpieces that would make him an integral figure in twentieth-century letters Psalm 44 shows Ki at his most lyrical and unguarded demonstrating that even in the place of dragons... covered with the shadow of deaththere can still be poetry. Featuring characters based on actual inmates and wardersincluding the abominable Dr. MengelePsalm 44 is a baring of many of the themes patterns and preoccupations Ki would return to in future albeit never with the same starkness or immediacy.
