description: DEATH OF NEW YORK CITY culls a selection of Nina Zivancevic's work from five books of poetry. Charles Simic writes in his forward to the book that in spite of Zivancevic's strong connections to Paris, New York and Belgrade (her birthplace), "the voice that comes through in her poems is that of an exile, of someone who travels with eyes and ears open. The genius of her art lies in her ability to make surprising connections between diverse cultures and literatures, giving her poetry a richness and range that is truly rare."
