Textul de pe ultima copertă
From the East and West, from ancient times to modern, from Mei Yu Ch'en on swarming mosquitoes to William Cullen Bryant's solitary waterfowl and Rainer Maria Rilke's enchanted gazelle, from Auden on cats and dogs to E.E. Cumming's verse in the shape of a grasshopper to James Merrill's vision of the octopus, here- selected by John Hollander- are 136 poems that provide exhilarating access to literature's glorious lyric zoo.
