5.0 out of 5 stars Tearing The Mask Away, June 12, 2000
By 
Enrique Torres "Rico" (San Diegotitlan, Califas) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: Configurations (Paperback)
A grand collection of poems written by the master technician of prose, Octavio Paz, in the late 50's and 60's. This was his first collection of writings released in the United States. The themes explored are typical Paz but two works standout and are worth the price of the book alone. The first is the epic "Piedra Del Sol/Sun Stone" where Paz explores the Aztec stone with erotic prose that illuminates as well as illustrates. The second is his reaction to the slaughter of demonstrating Mexican students in 1968 entitled "Ladera Este" which he protested by resigning as Ambassador to India. Excellent prose by Mexico's greatest poet.
