- eru 10y agoHave a look at the Todesfuge: eg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVwLqEHDCQE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVwLqEHDCQE or http://www.celan-projekt.de/todesfuge-deutsch.html http://www.celan-projekt.de/todesfuge-deutsch.html and http://poemsintranslation.blogspot.com.au/2010/01/paul-celan-death-fugue-from-german.html http://poemsintranslation.blogspot.com.au/2010/01/paul-celan... (the translation doesn't seem nearly as wrenching as the German to me, though). Der Tod ist ein Meister aus Deutschland.
