{"product_id":"trilce","title":"Trilce","description":"\u003cb\u003eA new translation of the Peruvian poet's most groundbreaking, infamously obstuse work, a collection that stretches the limits of human language and predicted the Surrealist movement of the 1920s and 30s. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis bilingual edition of \u003ci\u003eTrilce\u003c\/i\u003e includes glosses by the translators, giving readers and deeper look into these fascinating poems and the writer behind them. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCésar Vallejo's \u003ci\u003eTrilce\u003c\/i\u003e, first published in 1922, transformed poetry in Spanish utterly, remaking the substance of verse from the word up. Rich in startling neologisms and other forms of verbal play, \u003ci\u003eTrilce \u003c\/i\u003eis a blazingly vivid revelation of what poetry can be, at once a love poem, a poem of erotic urgency and frustration, a poem of family life, of political fury, a lament for the dead, a work of intense privacy and an address to the world. As a whole, the work may be said to constitute a profound reckoning with time--the time of literary forms and their conjunctions with social and political time; the time of indigenous and traditional cultural forms--which also works to create a new poetic now. Haunting and incantatory, Vallejo's complex set of poems speaks powerfully to us, as we in our time seek to find what needs to be made present. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this new edition of \u003ci\u003eTrilce\u003c\/i\u003e--the recipient of the prestigious Premio Valle Inclán for the best translation from Spanish into English--the translators Helen Dimos and William Rowe accompany each poem with a gloss. Their incisive commentary on these legendarily challenging poems opens them up to new understanding while inviting readers to find their own pathways to and through them.","brand":"Helen Dimos, César Vallejo, William Rowe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (English)","offer_id":47602606080236,"sku":"9781681379968","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback (Spanish)","offer_id":47602606113004,"sku":"9788411267687","price":27.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardcover (Spanish)","offer_id":47602606145772,"sku":"9788411268097","price":36.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9781681379968.jpg?v=1778041427","url":"https:\/\/intl.allstora.com\/products\/trilce","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
