Dutch Poetry in Translation: Kaleidoscope, from Medieval Times to the Present, With Parallel Dutch Text
A beautiful collection of poetic classics, but above all the quality of the translations is extraordinarily high.  --Driekleur, a monthly Dutch periodical for Netherlanders living abroad, March, 1998A very handsome book.  Especially good in matching the meter of the originals... the translations are sensitive and faithful.  --Johanna Prins, Columbia University, Newsletter of American Association for Netherlandic Studies, Spring 1998The view through this kaleidoscope is a delight:  full of color, depth and perspective and a true insight into the rich Dutch poetry of the past, which has been kept from the English speaking world for too long. --Dr. Ton Broos, Director of Dutch Studies, University of MichiganTheir presentation of translations accompanied by the original Dutch text makes this volume a treasure trove for all.  --Robert S. Kirsner, Professor of Dutch and Afrikaans, University of California, Los AngelesThey have in great measure succeeded in giving English speakers an insight into what Dutch poets have produced in the course of centuries.  All worthwhile, very interesting reading.   --De Nederlandse Courant, a Canadian Dutch newspaper, March 14, 1998Translating poetry is so difficult and both authors are able to do it, and that is a small miracle.  A beautiful book.   --Dr. Maarten Timmer, Amstelveen, Netherlands, De Hollandse Krant, a Canadian Dutch newspaper, May 25, 1998
