A blackbird is singing

"I gazed long and hard at this land, trying to understand my place here"
★On self, love, history, and nature★A representative work from the entire career of Welsh poet RS Thomas★Translated by poet and translator Li Yiliang
RS Thomas, one of the greatest lyric poets in the English-speaking world of the 20th century, embodies a fusion of intense detail and profound reflection. His imaginative energy imbues his poetry with a sense of movement, and his language possesses an inherent rhythm. Both content and form maintain a natural, measured, and rigorous quality.
This book selects nearly 300 representative poems from the poet's own anthology. The selected works are from 1945 to 2000, throughout his poetry career. It is a comprehensive and condensed display of the poet's entire poetry creation, and also provides readers with an excellent guide to enter the world of RS Thomas's poetry.
【Celebrity Recommendation】
Thomas created extraordinary poetry from the frivolous and unforgiving mountain country of Wales and its stubborn, existential Christianity. —Robert Hass RS Thomas's poems are like hard stones, stubbornly enduring the erosion of time... His greatest achievement is that they express a belief, a belief that grows in waiting and discerning, and that there will always be a reader. —Andrew Mawson
