Synopsis

A comprehensive anthology of Chinese poetry from the 12th century B.C. to the present.

"This magnificent collection has the effect of a complete library rather than of an anthology of poetry. . . . A lyric quality comes through into our own language . . . Every page is alive with striking and wonderful things, immediately accessible." --Publishers Weekly

"Sunflower Splendor is the largest and, on the whole, best anthology of translated Chinese poems to have appeared in a Western language."--The New York Times Book Review

"This remarkably fine anthology should remain standard for a long time." --Library Journal

" . . . excellent translations by divers hands. Open to any page and listen to the still, sad music . . . " --Washington Post Bookworld
