If you like her, you should check out the poetry of her compatriot, Tadeusz Rozewicz. W.W. Norton has just published a new collection of Rozewicz's poetry titled "Sobbing Superpower." My personal favorite is the poem, "On Felling A Tree." Like Szymborska, Rozewicz has an ecological consciousness, with poems about mad cow disease, zoos, etc., but his poetry is both broader and deeper than Szymborska's. Joanna Trzeciak does a wonderful job translating both poets. Szymborska is an incredibly talented and accessible poet.
