Praise for George Szirtes's poetry:
"Szirtes's position in English poetry is unique, combining a loving engagement with the poetic forms and traditions of his adopted home with the direct linguistic and imaginative access to European history, the Holocaust and the struggles of small nations with larger neighbours."
