Forced March: Selected Poems | 
I've just finished Miklós Radnóti's selected poems, some of which were found in his pocket when his body was exhumed from the mass grave into which he and other Jewish slave laborers were buried after their murder in 1944.
They were competently translated (I read them in French) and very moving.
On a lighter note, don't you think he looks a bit like Andy Samberg?

Dilara ⬇The poems drew heavily on Virgil's Eclogues and also referenced modern poets. It is pretty clear Radnóti was part of an international circle: he spent time in Paris and translated French, Latin and German works. He mentions people, and especially poets, from different parts of the world, from Garcia Lorca to the African-American poet John Love, murdered by the KKK. He was antifascist, of course. 2y
Lunakay He does look a bit like him, agreed! 2y
