Bol A collection of lyrical, philosophical early poems by “one of Chile’s foremost poets” (Publishers Weekly) Enrique Lihn is among the most important Chilean poets, alongside Nicanor Parra, since the generation of Gabriela Mistral, Vicente Huidobro and Pablo Neruda. Lihn’s first two poetry books represented here–Nada se escurre (Nothing Slips Away, 1949) and Poemas de este tiempo y de otro (Poems of This Time and Another, 1955)–introduce his dark, lyric genius and existential intensity. These works sounded an early alarm, announcing that a new voice had been born within the rich and unrestrained tradition of Chilean poetry. This current volume contains a marvellous selection of Lihn’s pioneering early work, translated exquisitely by Jonathan Cohen and David Unger and introduced by the Chilean journalist and Lihn scholar Roberto Brodsky.
