The best Ruben Dario book for the international fan,
By
This review is from: Stories and Poems/Cuentos y Poesias: A Dual-Language Book (Dover Dual Language Spanish) (Paperback)
I found this book to be very insightful into the mind of Ruben Dario. Having the translation in both languages gives the reader an accurate idea of what Dario wanted to express; and also gives the reader an accurate idea of why he chose certain words to say certain things. Some small detail I would have wished is that it contained the full lirical calendar, the autum, winter, spring, and fall poems. Overall, an exellent book.

You simply can't go wrong with this series. Here is one of the great names in Spanish literature, Rubén Darío, made even more accessible through the dual-language format. A must for teachers, students, and those of us will always be both!

Representative Selection,

This review is from: Stories and Poems/Cuentos y Poesias: A Dual-Language Book (Dover Dual Language Spanish) (Paperback)
Wide range of Darío's life work. Short stories and poems. Contains most of his famous stuff. Print large enough to read easily. English translation on right side helpful for intermediate Spanish readers. It's amusing to disagree with the translator's take.
