1990 Nobel laureate.

Paz's native Mexico has been the center of a global mandala, a cultural configuration that, in his life and work, he has traced to its furthest reaches. A great synthesizer, the rich diversity of Paz's thought is shown here in all its astonishing complexity. Among the sixty-seven selections in this volume, a gathering in English of his most essential poems drawn from nearly fifty years' work, are Muriel Rukeyser's now classic version of "Sun Stone" and new translations by editor Weinberger of "Blanco" and "Maithuna."
