Book Synopsis
Juan Ramón Jimenez (1881-1958) was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1956, yet his work remains far less well-known in the English-speaking world than it deserves. Jimenez was a prolific writer - his collected verse fills twenty volumes - and his early poems were first published whilst still in his teens.

Trade Review
...a commendable effort to bring the Spanish Nobel Laureate a little nearer to that (english-speaking) public.'
