Poems of effervescent grace from one of the best-known and best-loved poets of Portugal
With the elliptical looping of a butterfly alighting on one's sleeve, the poems of Ana Lui¿sa Amaral arrive as small hypnotic miracles. Spare and beautiful in a way reminiscent both of Szymborska and of Emily Dickinson (it comes as no surprise that Amaral is the leading Portuguese translator of Dickinson), these poemsin Margaret Jull Costa's gorgeous English versionsseamlessly interweave the everyday with the dreamlike and ask What's in a name?
