Buried in the Sands of Time By Janko Ferk, Translation by Herbert Kuhner

The poems of Janko Ferk, a prominent young Slovenian author from Carinthia, deal less with ethnic problems than with descriptions of the human condition in general, particularly human mortality and spiritual possibilities. In well-crafted, deeply-felt verses that are haunting and poignant, he explores in personal terms the transience of human beings.
