Selected Poems
Regarded by many as the finest poet of 20th-century Spain, Antonio Machado y Ruiz (1875-1939) is not well known outside the Spanish-speaking world. Some 250 poems in Spanish, drawn from Machado's entire oeuvre, are accompanied on facing pages by sensitive and beautifully fluent translations.
The Poetry of Antonio Machado
This book offers a much needed reappraisal of a major twentieth-century Spanish poet, Antonio Machado (1875-1939), offering compelling arguments why his poetry should have a more vital profile not only within the precincts of Hispanism but also alongside the most significant twentieth-century poets of Europe and America, seeking to open up new perspectives for the interpretation of his poetry.

A new book of poetry translation that enhances the ordinary
Antonio Machado
This is the first biography in English of Antonio Machado, regarded by Spaniards as their finest 20th century poet. It contains translations of his poetry and prose, which are set within the dramatic story of his life. It tells of his tragic marriage, his clandestine affair with a married woman and his close ties with his brother and fellow-poet Manuel, which ended when they took opposite sides in the Civil War. Antonio fought with his pen against Franco and was eventually driven into exile. The book concludes with a psychological analysis of the man and his work.
