Abstract: "In this collection of contemplative, witty, and always surprising poems, Wislawa Szymborska writes with verve about everything from love unremembered to keys mislaid in the grass, from small-scale naughtiness to the happiness of skating on thin ice, from the district firemen's ball to the cosmos."--BOOK JACKET.
