Reception
Stephan Delbos of The Prague Post wrote: "Unseen Hand shows the poet in a more mature state of mind than much of his earlier work, less of a political reactionary and more a settled poet musing on deep matters of the mind and heart. ... Despite the developments age and experience have brought to Zagajewski's poetry, the essential elements of his work remain the same, as do Zagajewski's favorite words: joy, praise, nettles, exile - all can be found on the pages of Unseen Hand. But here, Zagajewski's approach to these themes is more subtle than in earlier collections." Delbos ended the review: "Zagajewski is a master. Unseen Hand offers evidence of a deepening of his already-impressive gifts and a welcomed ability to live in moments of uncertainty. Let us hope his poems will continue to guide readers through their own moments of uncertainty for many books to come."[2]
