Of his second book, \u003ci\u003eThe Sea Aflame\u003c\/i\u003e, Octavio Paz wrote: \"Our language will be, already is, larger by one poet.\" In 1970, with \u003ci\u003eMirrors\u003c\/i\u003e, Gimferrer turned to Catalan, his mother tongue. Since then, he has won major Catalan and Spanish prizes for his work, which, along with poetry, includes writings on film and art history, translations, and novels. This bilingual volume, the first to draw on all phases of Gimferrer's career as a poet--from \u003ci\u003eMessage from the Tetrarch\u003c\/i\u003e, published when he was eighteen, to selections from his recent verses in Italian--is an ideal introduction to a writer who, in the words of Roberto Bola?o, \"is a great poet and also knows everything.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis bilingual edition includes the original French\/German\/Spanish versions of each poem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pere Gimferrer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1681374986\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781681374987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New York Review of Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/25\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.90h x 4.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Pere Gimferrer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44046186021119,"sku":"9781681374987","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ecef2c45-98c0-4845-8a88-846c230020f1.jpg?v=1684983133","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pere-gimferrer-pere-gimferrer-9781681374987","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
