German poet Friedrich Ruckert’s youngest children died of scarlet fever. Over six months in 1834, he wrote hundreds of laments that were published posthumously in the classic poetry collection, Kindertotenlieder. Here in English for the first time, these evocative modern translations reveal ‘an honest grappling with grief’.
