Softcover. Condición: As New. Among the most lasting voices of the most tumultuous (in his own words, "the saddest") century, a witness and a chronicler of its most decisive events, he is the author of more than thirty-five books of poetry and one of Latin America's most revered writers, the emblem of the engaged poet, an artist whose heart, always with the people, is literally consumed by passion. His work, oscillating from epic meditations on politics and history to intimate reflections on animals, food, and everyday objects, is filled with humor and affection. This bilingual selection of more than fifty of Neruda's best poems, edited and with an introduction by the distinguished Latin American scholar Ilan Stavans and brilliantly translated by an array of well-known poets, also includes some poems previously unavailable in English. I Explain a Few Things distills the poet's brilliance to its most essential and illuminates Neruda's commitment to using the pen as a calibrator for his age.…

Hardcover. Condición: Like New. Like New. First Printing. By the time Isaac Bashevis Singer published the three short-story collections gathered in this Library of America volumeA Friend of Kafka (1970), A Crown of Feathers (1973), and Passions (1975)he had made his home in America for nearly four decades. Earning his living as a columnist for the Yiddish newspaper Forverts (The Jewish Daily Forward), he had risen from nearly complete anonymity outside of his Yiddish readership to international celebrity as the last of the great Yiddish fiction writers, as Anzia Yzierska once called him. Awarded prizes, fêted in the United States and abroad, eagerly sought for lectures and interviews, he had brought about this remarkable transformation primarily though the translation of his stories. Often collaborating with his translators, Singer intended the English version of his stories to be regarded not as diminished approximations of his Yiddish stories but as works shaped by the author in the language of his adopted homeland.The sixty-five stories in Collected Stories: A Friend of Kafka to Passionsthe second of three volumesreflect Singers origins in Poland and his long exile in America. Although he continued to write tales drawing on Jewish folk traditions and supernaturalism, many of his stories from the late 1960s and early 1970s take place in the United States, as Singer explored the psychic devastation wrought by the Nazi genocide on Holocaust survivors (The Cafeteria), evoked the fragility of transplanted forms of Jewish life and belief (The Cabalist of East Broadway), and reflected on the spiritual hazards of worldly success in America (Old Love). Stories such as A Day in Coney Island, A Tutor in the Village, and The Sonbased on Singers reunion with his son Israel Zamir after a twenty-year separationshow Singer blurring the line between autobiography and fiction, a tendency that marks much of his later writing.Green cloth. 856pp. Bound in ribbon page marker.
