About This Item
Quito, Ecuador: Editorial Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana, 1967. First Edition. 276, [7]pp. 7 x 5 inches. Illustrated stiff paper wrappers. Near Fine.
Inscribed and signed by Carrera Andrade to his bibliographer, Dorothy E. Harth "con mis mejores recuerdos y mi amistad. Jorge Carrera Andrade." This lauded Ecuadorian author "composed brief, imagistic poems noted for a sympathetic understanding of the human condition. He also translated the works of other writers into Spanish and adapted Japanese haiku into Spanish in a form called micrograma." (Stony Brook University Libraries) In France and Spain, Carrera Andrade met other Latin American expatriates, including Pablo Neruda, Gabriela Mistral, and César Vallejo. His poems were anthologized and/or translated by Muna Lee, William Carlos Williams, Thomas Merton and others. Lee's translation of his work Secret County (1946) significantly raised his stature in the United States.
