A comprehensive anthology of Chinese poetry from the 12th century B.C. to the present. "This magnificent collection has the effect of a complete library rather than of an anthology of poetry.... A lyric quality comes through into our own language... Every page is alive with striking and wonderful things, immediately accessible." --Publishers Weekly "Sunflower Splendor is the largest and, on the whole, best anthology of translated Chinese poems to have appeared in a Western language."--The New York Times Book Review "This remarkably fine anthology should remain standard for a long time." --Library Journal ..". excellent translations by divers hands. Open to any page and listen to the still, sad music... " --Washington Post Bookworld Similar books: Love and the Turning Year by Kenneth Rexroth Poems of the Late T'ang by A. C.
