These translations are not simply the same poems in a different language; Cassells has crafted new poetry. The gentle and delicate rhythms of Parcerisas have been contracted into shorter lines that explore sharper cadences whilst Cassells carefully maintains a sensitive continuity in the opening feet. This is poetry for the ear first and the page second, Cassells has stronger consonants at his disposal, a resource that he skilfully exploits. The ultimate product of his labours is a short collection of poetry that reads and feels like a work of English Literature, a sensation that is perhaps the highest compliment one may bestow upon a Literary Translation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francesc Parcerisas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1622885430\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781622885435\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen F.
