many of these poems are very good, however i am struck by how much is lost in translation, and how... awkward... some phrases are the way they've been translated.

Full disclosure, I'm not a big fan of poetry. Still, I enjoyed a few of these poems, though most couldn't get to me. The translation felt a little weird to me and I read some reviews that feel the same, so maybe I will look for a different translator and try again.
