Influenced by St. Augustine, \u003cem\u003eThe Cloud of Unknowing\u003c\/em\u003e and Wordsworth's \u003cem\u003eThe Prelude\u003c\/em\u003e, the poem, full of literary, artistic and philosophical references, is simultaneously a meditation on the meaning of time and its manifestations--its epiph-anies--in a concrete life. The reflection on historical time leads the poet to the reality of \"the pain of the world,\" but also towards a world that is incessantly and continually beginning. As Yves Bonnefoy puts it, \"Sánchez Robayna knows what 'the new time' expects of us which Rimbaud foresaw as 'very severe'.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Book, Behind the Dune\u003c\/em\u003e (\u003cem\u003eEl libro, tras la duna\u003c\/em\u003e), already translated into French, Italian, Czech, German and Arabic, is presented here for the first time in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andres Sanchez Robayna\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848615221\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848615229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shearsman Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/27\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.39lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.31d","brand":"Andres Sanchez Robayna","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486200443135,"sku":"9781848615229","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4617a0f4-31c3-4fad-8da4-a3bea6292c27.jpg?v=1778054318","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-book-behind-the-dune-andres-sanchez-robayna-9781848615229","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
