Gabriela Mistral

A Reader
Poems and prose by Latin America's first Nobel Prize laureate. "This beautiful anthology holds the first English translation of Gabriela Mistral's extraordinary poetry and prose.hidden to the mainstream no longer, here is the breathtaking lifework of a most gifted and enigmatic muse."-NAPRA Journal
Gabriela Mistral's name evokes a constellation of contradictory images: a rural schoolteacher and first Latin American recipient of the Nobel Prize, a poet who sang to children but never had any of her own, a provincialist and a universal traveller. All these references to her mythic legacy contain some truth and form part of the legacy of Gabriela Mistral. This anthology, the first to translate the broad spectrum of her work into English, gathers selections from both her poetry and her prose, and reflects all phases of her work.
