The Rules of the Game


Book Description

The Rules of the Game reintroduces Ludwig Zeller, the great Chilean Canadian "poet's poet", through an enthralling selection of his most engaging works. These short poems span a development of almost sixty years.

They give the reader a great poet's door into the riches of surrealism, European romanticism, and the age-old Spanish lyric tradition.The fluent translations by A. F. Moritz represent often his fourth or fifth revisiting of the Zeller versions he has been producing since 1978.
