Sunflower Splendor

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
