OF GENTLE WOLVES LAUNCH @ HOLY TRINITY IN PHILLY

A CULTURAL CELEBRATION OF ROMANIA’S NATIONAL DAY

PHILADELPHIA—Calypso Editions is proud to team up with the Holy Trinity Romanian Orthodox Church and V. Rev. Father Nicolai Buga to host a celebration of Romanian National Day. The event will take place on Saturday December 3, 2011, at 4:30 pm, in the Church's Festivity Hall (714 N American St. Philadelphia, PA 19123), featuring a talented group of Philadelphia based artists: the Philadelphia String Quartet, Romanian translator Adam Sorkin, and Romanian translator and poet Martin Woodside.

Ilya Kaminsky writes:
“Woodside’s translations perform miracles. There is no other way to say this: the poems are alive, they breathe, they laugh and howl, they re-create our world again. This is an anthology to live with: a sample or two from such established authors such as the venerable elders Marin Sorescu and Ana Blandiana, to many new voices that are restless, ruthless, ravishing and utterly lyrical.”
