Henrikas Radauskas [ɣʲɛmrʲɪkaːs raːdaːʊskas] (23 April 1910 – 27 August 1970) was a Lithuanian poet and writer. Described as an "art alcoholic" by the contemporary Alfonsas Nyka-Niliūnas,[1] Radauskas's works are marked by aestheticism, anti-lyricism, aesthetic distance, and poetic transformation of reality.[2] He is described as "one of the most accomplished Baltic poets of the post-World War II years, and perhaps the greatest Lithuanian poet of the twentieth century".[3]
