This English-Spanish bilingual anthology now introduces English-speaking readers to Teillier, with a representative selection of his best work from all phases of his career.Carolyne Wright has translated poems from the volumes Muertes y maravillas (1971), Para un pueblo fantasma (1978), and Cartas para reinas de otras primaveras (1985). Avoiding the bravura effects of some of his contemporaries, Teillier writes from a life lived directly and simply, returning time and again in his poetry to the timeless and mythic South of his boyhood, the \"Land of Nevermore.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51735559504160,"sku":"NEW0292781237","price":23.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/615GgjFFi7L.jpg?v=1779488131","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/in-order-to-talk-with-the-dead-selected-poems-of-jorge-teillier-texas-pan-american-series-english-and-spanish-edition-0292781237","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
