Lawrence and Walt Whitman alongside his own work, returned to English from his previous translations into Polish. As he explains in the preface: "Robert Hass was of the opinion that those poems should not be eliminated, as they make an integral part of my mosaic, so we have left them, an homage to tutelary spirits." 9'' x 6''.
