David Lloyd's review of Peter Manson's Mallarmé translation in The Enclave Review

Stephane Mallarme: The Poems in Verse book cover

Manson's translations of Mallarmé never pretend to the Romantic ambition of recreating the poem from its origins, nor do they entirely estrange the English language from itself. What they do achieve is the creation of a contemporary English poetry that stands in tension with Mallarmé's own in a way that deepens and highlights the potentialities of both. They will stand as a mark, singular and idiosyncratic rather than blandly definitive, of what translation can and should attain to.
—David Lloyd
