The first authorized English translation of Aun, considered among Neruda's finest long poems. More aware than ever of his imminent death, these 28 cantos--written during two intensely lyrical days--launch the poet on a personal expedition in search of his deepest roots. It is a soaring tribute to the Chilean people, their history and survival, that invokes the Araucanian Indians, the conquistadors who tried to enslave them, folklore, the people and places of his childhood, and the sights and smells of the marketplace. As in the best poetry, Neruda's particulars become profoundly universal. With an introduction by translator O'Daly.--From publisher description.

This New Prose collection from the late Zbigniew Herbert, available for the first time in English, is a retelling of myths and tales "simple and as old as the world" ("Endymion"). Hybrids of the short story and the essay, the eleven pieces in The King of the Ants present Herbert's very different "apocryphal" views of the mythological past.

Long descriptive poems, collages of surreal scientific knowledge. Snap-shots of the origin of the universe, quantum physics, and the evolution of our solar system and life on Earth. Facts and images from biology, anthropology, history, theology, personal memory, and revolutionary ideals. The work takes on the very largest themes of existence in the form of a rapid cycling cut-up, the monologue of an old mind in an advanced state of knowledge.

Odes probably compiles some of the 'elemental poems' of Neruda;
the odas are long vertical poem-portraits of ordinary household items
and everyday things such as onions, pants, stones, etc. ...some
scholars and Latin American readers consider the odas the best of
Neruda's poetic vision and contribution...

Known for sharp imagery, startling metaphors, and deceptively simple diction, Tranströmer's luminous poems offer mysterious glimpses of insight into the deepest facets of humanity. These new translations, in a bilingual edition, are tautly rendered and elegantly cadenced. They are also deeply informed by Crane's personal relationship with the poet and his wife during the years she lived in Sweden. --Publisher

"This en face annotated edition of selected writings of the Mexican poet includes the Respuesta to the Bishop of Puebla (1691) and a broad selection of her poetry and dramatic texts: nine love sonnets; segments from Primero sueño, Villancico VI to Saint Catherine, and Loa para el auto sacramental de el divino Narciso; and Leonor's speech from the play Los empeños de una casa. Peden's 'Translator's Note' explains her translation strategy of 'moving backwards' towards the poet's place and time, which skillfully captures the full flavor of the baroque past. Stavans' extensive 'Introduction' and 'Suggestions for Further Reading' provide orientation to Sor Juana's masterpieces and their social and intellectual contexts. Highly recommended for classroom and general use"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
