WINGED ENERGY OF DELIGHT: Selected Translations
by Bly, Robert
ISBN: 0060575867
Publisher: Harper Collins
"For 50 years, Bly has been amazingly prescient in his choice of poets to translate, supplying qualities that seemed lacking from our own literary culture. As Kenneth Rexroth has said, Bly ""is one of the leaders of a poetic revival that has returned American literature to the world community."" This book brings together the poems of 22 renowned and lesser-known poets from around the world, including Neruda, Vallejo, Trakl, Jimenez, Transtromer, Rumi, and the nineteenth-century Indian poet Ghalib."
