"The first Nobel Prize in literature to be awarded to a Latin American writer went to the Chilean poet Gabriela Mistral. Famous and beloved during her lifetime all over Latin America and in Europe, Mistral has never been known in North America as she deserves to be. The reputation of her more flamboyant and accessible friend and countryman Pablo Neruda has overshadowed hers, and she has been officially sentimentalized into a 'poetess' of children and motherhood. Translations, and even selections of her work in Spanish, have tended to underplay the darkness, the strangeness, and the raging intensity of her poems of grief and pain, the yearning power of her evocations of the Chilean landscape, the stark music of her Round Dances, the visionary splendor of her Hymns of America. During her lifetime Mistral published four books: Desolation, Tenderness, Clearcut, and Winepress. These are included in the 'Complete' Nobel edition published in Madrid; the Poem of Chile, her last book, was printed years after her death. Le Guin includes poems from all five books in this volume, with particular emphasis on the later work. The intelligence and passion of Le Guin's selection and translation will finally allow people in the North to hear the originality, power, purity, and intransigence of this great American voice"--Publisher

"The child is a savor with more varied and savvy senses than the adult, in whom education has slaughtered both his imagination and the sensitivity of his senses." "The lullaby is made for the mother and it is made tender, loving and sharp in order that she may relish, savor in verse and verse her own love, her own tenderness. It is therefore a song that , like a broken fruit, it gives the child half, that is, the pure melody, or back and forth and gives the mother, entirely, the lyrics "GABRIELA MISTRAL

Poetas hispanoamericanas contemporáneas: poéticas y metapoéticas (Siglos XX-XXI) reúne estudios sobre las poéticas -fundamentalmente las «poéticas explícitas de poetas» (Demmers), con la inclusión de las artes poéticas-, en torno a otros poemas y textos metapoéticos, y sobre las poéticas implícitas. El aporte fundamental del libro radica en la valorización del elemento metapoético y autorreflexivo en las poetas hispanoamericanas, ya que la investigación en torno al arte poética y a la metapoesía se ha centrado ante todo, hasta hoy, en autores masculinos. Con sus acercamientos a Gabriela Mistral, Claribel Alegría, Ana Enriqueta Terán, Carilda Oliver, Amanda Berenguer, Fina García Marruz, Rosario Castellanos, Susana Thénon, Carmen Ollé, Cristina Peri Rossi, Reina María Rodríguez, Tamara Kamenszain, Cristina Rivera Garza, entre otras, el libro pretende contribuir a abrir el canon metapoético a la escritura de las mujeres

"Beautiful bilingual edition of the prose poems that exemplify 'Mistral's sense of sisterhood with all women,' first published in Desolación in 1922 and revised by Mistral in the 1950 edition upon which these translations are based. Twelve powerful paintings by a leading Chilean artist and superb English renditions capture the multilayered imagery, cadences, and 'sense of otherness.' Eloquent introductory essay and translator's note. Highly recommended"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58

"Nueva edición (la primera es de 1967) de crucial colección de la poeta. Dos personajes, una mujer y un niño indígena, recorren un Chile lleno de claves genéricas, étnicas y políticas en dirección a un origen decisivo: el sur chileno. Las voces del niño y la mujer en contrapunto subrayan la dimensión dramática de la mujer como fantasma o 'trascordada.'"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58
