Through a profound and complex reinterpretation of the sonnet form, the book reflects, as in a mosaic of shattered mirrors, many of the writer's ongoing preoccupations: the relationship of East and West; an eroticism at once physical and cerebral; the interaction of poetry and prose; the strange blending of the everyday and the foreign, in which the most \"exotic\" journeys become ordinary and the most ordinary displacements partake of the strange. King of a Hundred Horsemen-in a brilliant translation by Marilyn Hacker that Robert Hass selected for the National Poetry Series's first Robert Fagles Translation Prize in 2007-is an elegant, deeply affecting work from a master poet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51819288920352,"sku":"NEW0374531927","price":18.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81-_efdAzwL.jpg?v=1781129414","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/king-of-a-hundred-horsemen-poems-english-and-french-edition-0374531927","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
