Summary
'Bilingual edition of nine poems, all of which relate experiences of passage and increased, at times painful, awareness. English versions are highly readable, even 're-readable' (Sojourner, Feb. 1997); however, they often lack the alliterative precision and nuances of the Spanish. No commentary of any kind provided'--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.http://www.loc.gov/hlas/
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
This bilingual edition of poems from El Salvador's most beloved poet moves in imagery between Central America and the world, between childhood's safety in the ceiba tree's shade and the journey through time that the speaker must take. The translation lovingly preserves the lyricism of the original language, a moving and memorable collection.
