Description
"Beautiful bilingual edition of the prose poems that exemplify 'Mistral's sense of sisterhood with all women,' first published in DesolaciĆ³n in 1922 and revised by Mistral in the 1950 edition upon which these translations are based. Twelve powerful paintings by a leading Chilean artist and superb English renditions capture the multilayered imagery, cadences, and 'sense of otherness.' Eloquent introductory essay and translator's note. Highly recommended"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
