Selected Poems of Salvador Espriu, Paperback / softback Book

Selected Poems of Salvador Espriu Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Salvador Espriu was born in 1913. A member of the so-called generation of '36-those who were in their twenties at the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War-Espriu became a voluntary exile in his own land.

Writing in a forbidden language, hyperconscious of his historical moment, he took upon himself the task of saving Catalan for his people.

In this bilingual edition, with a preface by the translator and an introduction by Francesca Vallverdu, Espriu's friend and Spanish publisher, Magda Bogin has given us a glimpse into a remarkable body of poetry from a poet whose literary stature in Spain is akin to that o William Carlos Williams and T.

S. Eliot in the English speaking world.
