Death / Books Wislawa Szymborska

The Polish poet, who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1996, has died. She was 88. You can read some of her poetry here. I especially like this one.

She was my favorite poet. Served up everything you needed and nothing you didn't, in the plainest and best words. Sigh.
