| Publisher Description: Winner of the 2016 Cliff Becker Book Prize in Translation In Returnings, we are treated to an essay on the imaginative possibilities of a great poet, long exiled from his native land, turning memory into verse, recovering from the past everything that counts: love and friendship and the landscapes that shaped him. Through alleyways and storied ruins, colors and autumn and war, Alberti discovers poetry at every turn.--Christopher Merrill, prize judge The musical language that drives these urgent poems is echoed exquisitely in Carolyn Tipton's translations.--Stephen Kessler Rafael Alberti was one of the greatest poets of twentieth-century Spain. Poet and translator Carolyn L. Tipton teaches at the University of California, Berkeley. |
