Lassi Sinkkonen stands among the defining voices of Finland's young poet generation of the 1960s and '70s. Towards Us, a comprehensive selection of his poetry curated and translated with great care by Ernest Wuorinen, introduces this unique Nordic voice to the English-reading public for the first time. As a working-class man, Sinkkonen's descriptions of urban and proletarian life are central to his writing. Humor and biting irony add zest to his day-to-day realism and to descriptions of even the harshest life conditions. Despite the often dark and jagged outlook, there's also love and longing, ecstatic encounters with nature, as well as visions of societal change and a hope for something better. Towards Us launches Kroxet Books' Modern Nordic Poets series, devoted to introducing essential 20thcentury voices from the North in English translation to a new generation of readers worldwide.
