Still Waters of the Air: Poems by Three Modern Spanish Poets (English and Spanish Edition)

In this 1970 hardcover book, exquisitely illustrated by Arvis Stewart, the reader finds poems in Spanish and in English translation of three of Spain's greatest poets: Frederico Lorca, Antonio Machado, and Juan Ramon Jimenez, each one having shaped out of the harsh and beautiful landscape of Spain his vision, his passionate subjects, his poetic style. As if speaking to one another, the three poets convey their love of the sensuous, their fascination with the intermingling worlds of dream and reality, their probing of the mystery of death--and their celebration of life in poems that mirror the progressions of nature's seasons, from spring to winter, and humankind's seasons as they pass from childhood to old age.
