Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Spanish by many hands. Introduction by José Emilio Pacheco. "The meticulous and loving catalog of moments, animals, plants, beings, suns, and nocturnal revelations that this poetry offers us constitutes—in my way of thinking—a terrible oracle, and a last shout of hope. To say it in a simpler, more direct way, it is a prayer"—Álvaro Mutis.
