Reviews

{{quote|In Glottal Stop, however, in the words of the Griffin Poetry Prize Citation, "Heather McHugh and Nikolai Popov have achieved the seemingly impossible: more than translating Celan into English, they have found a way to translate English into Celan." The solutions that Popov-McHugh find to the problems set by Celan are "dazzlingly creative" (J.M. Coetzee, New York Review of Books). They have "the bold music and expressionistic syntax that Celan's unique voice demands. The compounds and stretches and sound-tangles bring a startling poetic life to English" (Robert Pinksy).[6]}}
