Good for people wishing to learn Spanish, but also a great volume of Latin American writing,

This review is from: Twentieth-Century Latin American Poetry: A Bilingual Anthology (Texas Pan American Series) (English and Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
I am not a huge fan of poetry, but I am a huge fan of Latin America and have been learning Spanish for the past several years. I use this book to compare the original to the translation (which are conveniently side by side on the same page) and it's interesting having some insight into what is lost in translation. It's also good for expanding vocabulary and getting a grasp of how to communicate more effectively in Spanish. As for a general poetry volume it's fairly comprehensive and features a lot of famous works; Gabriela Mistral, Pablo Neruda, Juan Luis Borges, Ramon Dario, Che Guevara. It also has brief, informative biography info that is helpful and gives a good context for understanding the lives and works of the artists. Useful as a learning tool, comprehensive as a volume. A good buy.
