Lands of Castile =

by Antonio Machado

"Written between 1907 and 1917, the poems address [Machado's] marriage and the death of his young wife from tuberculosis. Many of the poems were written in response to long walks he took in the countryside, and they capture the essence of the landscape and the people of Castile. Other poems address the postcolonial reality of Spain and give tribute to the writers, thinkers and poets of his country."--Back cover.
