Collected Poetry

Paul Auster

POETRY. SEIX BARRAL, 2012. 328 PAGES.

"I still feel great affection for the poetry I've written... It's probably my best writing." Thus Paul Auster explains his poetry's central place in his literary output.

This volume presents all his poems in Spanish for the first time, in a bilingual edition with a translation and prologue by the poet and critic Jordi Doce.

In his verses, Auster addresses the same themes and obsessions he explores in his novels: chance and destiny, the distance between the world and language and the dissolution of the self in discourse. This is intense, emotional poetry in which the subtle, musical voice of the author of The New York Trilogy resounds.
