Selected Poems

Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. Latinx Studies. Edited by Tony Frazer. Translated by Michael Smith, Luis Ingelmo, Tony Frazer, Eliot Weinberger. This selected edition presents an overview of all of Huidobro's work, from 1914 until 1948, when his final, posthumous volume was published, moving from the early symbolist work, through the high avant-garde phase towards the end of the First World War, then through Altazor and Temblor de cielo, the highpoint of his career (both published in 1931), and on into the quieter late poetry which synthesises the previous work and settles down into a post-vanguard style. Also included are two manifestos and two interviews with the author.
