This is the first comprehensive English-language collection of verse by the most celebrated Slovenian poet of modern times and one of Europe's most notable postwar poets, Edvard Kocbek (1904-1981). The selections introduce the reader to the full spectrum of Kocbek's long and distinguished career, starting with the pantheist and expressionist nature poems of his early period and continuing through the politically engaged poetry written during and after World War II, to the philosophical and metaphysical meditations of his fecund late period. Readers will be struck by the originality and freshness of Kocbek's sinewy and intense vision, rendered into fluid and idiomatic English by two experienced translators. The Slovenian texts appear on the facing pages. The opening stanza of "Moon with a Halo" The man beside me was killed. He had a mother who bore him and a father who made him toys, he had a brother and a playful uncle and a little girl with blond braids, he had a wooden cart and a wooden horse, a trunkful of colored dreams and a brook where he used to fish.

He's gorgeous, rich, sexy, super nice, and head-over-heels for her. So what's the problem? Her psychic best friend predicts that Laura Tanner is due to meet a prince--the man of her dreams. Not a likely scenario for a hard-working bar owner who's better at karate-chopping rowdy patrons than hobnobbing with the silver-spoon crowd. When Ivy League lawyer Brandon Prince (a prince!) strolls into her bar, Laura admits he's hard to resist. Brandon quickly realizes that this lovely, funny, take-no-prisoners woman is the special someone he's always wanted. Brandon is an expert at wooing women, and even a tough cookie like Laura can't help but fall under his spell. Before she knows what's happening, he's lured her on a romantic adventure filled with laughter and desire. Dazzled, she begins to believe that she really can have this prince of a man as her own. One problem: Brandon's powerful mother is used to women chasing his family fortune, and she'll do whatever it takes to keep yet another money-grubbing female out of his life. If a man is everything you've ever wanted, how can he also be nothing but trouble?
