Od zlata jabuka: Rukovet narodnih umotvorina

Vasko Popa

An anthology of folk poetry selected and edited by Vasko Popa.

Cover description: "Our folk poetry flourished and matured in the very heart of the centuries-old nights. During the dark centuries, the golden age of our literature was created. Our classics are the only and true. The period of our literature that shines from unfathomable distances with its wondrous beauty and that has not stopped and will never stop to illuminate poetic creation on this handful of land under this sky. The folk poet seems to still be at one with the nature around him, he still hears how the flowers grow, how the chicks lay from the egg, how the stars multiply. In his poem, the earth and the sun themselves open their hearts and speak with a human voice. Its rhythms also express the very play of sun rays and winds and branches. Through his eyes, even stone and wood see through and grow as only he, the man-poet, can grow."
