The Gypsy Soul in the Poems

This collection offers a rare opportunity to explore the poetic legacy of Matéo Maximoff, whose poems have never been translated into English before. His work deserves recognition, and the publication of this collection is an essential step toward acknowledging Gypsy literature on an international level. Maximoff's poems, rich with vivid imagery, musicality, and profound emotional depth, transcend personal experience and become the voice of an entire people. They weave together folklore traditions with an individual authorial style, creating a unique rhythm that, we hope, will resonate with a broad audience. This collection not only broadens our understanding of Maximoff's poetry but also contributes to strengthening the presence of Gypsy literature in the global cultural space.
