from New Directions Publishing Corporation
Price: $10.36

Customer Review:

Since I returned from my first trip to China, I have become fascinated with Chinese culture and history.
I don't know much about poetry except that I like what I like (what moves and inspires me).
Something tells me that these translations are as much Kenneth Rexroth as they are the... more info

Customer Review:

Of the more than 100 feet of bookshelves in my home Poems from the Greek Anthology translated by Kenneth Rexroth with introduction by David Mulroy represents the most cherished 3/8 inch.

This is a superb anthology several times over.

One Hundred More Poems from the Japanese (New Directions Book)
from New Directions Publishing Corporation
Price: $15.95

Customer Review:

Rexroth's brilliant translations, though at times very liberal, do much better at expressing the real meat of each poem than do more traditional, academic translations steeped in dated language. His other translated collections of Japanese, Chinese, French, Spanish, and Greek poetry are equally... more info

from New Directions Publishing Corporation
Price: $9.31

Customer Review:

I loved "One Hundred Poems from the Chinese" by Mr. Rexroth, and I thought then of course, I would want "More". And it is a very lovely collection of poems, tho I feel the stronger poems and poets were covered in the first book. The poems in "More" are very good, just not at the par of the first... more info
