This weekend, a giant among poets passed away. Czeslaw Milosz - the Polish poet known for his works depicting some of the worst cruelties of the 20th century died at age 93.
Milosz was a Nobel laureate for literature - recognized in 1980. He lived part of his life in exile - in both France and the United States - returning to Europe after the end of the cold war and continued to write. He was living in Krakow at the time of his death.
