Handsomely presented in facing-page Spanish and English, this volume, translated by National Book Award winner Clayton Eshleman, includes the groundbreaking collections \u003ci\u003eThe Black Heralds \u003c\/i\u003e(1918), \u003ci\u003eTrilce \u003c\/i\u003e(1922), \u003ci\u003eHuman Poems \u003c\/i\u003e(1939), and \u003ci\u003eSpain, Take This Cup from Me \u003c\/i\u003e(1939). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVallejo's poetry takes the Spanish language to an unprecedented level of emotional rawness and stretches its grammatical possibilities. Striking against theology with the very rhetoric of the Christian faith, Vallejo's is a tragic vision--perhaps the only one in the canon of Spanish-language literature--in which salvation and sin are one and the same. This edition includes notes on the translation and a fascinating translation memoir that traces Eshleman's long relationship with Vallejo's poetry. An introduction and chronology provide further insights into Vallejo's life and work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e César Vallejo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/14\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 736\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.1lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.10w x 1.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520261730","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42439241728137,"sku":"9780520261730","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_e2388677-5fc3-4192-8ddf-eeae6f3aff76.jpg?v=1716270546","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-complete-poetry-a-bilingual-edition-9780520261730","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
