World so wide, world so large, my heart's even larger' Modernist, misfit, everyman and master of the sublime, Carlos Drummond de Andrade is perhaps Brazil's greatest poet. This newly translated selection, spanning his sixty-year career, reveals his compelling humour, pathos and sensitivity. From the sparse, quiet lyricism of 'Childhood', recalling his youth in Brazil's rural interior, to the wry advice offered to would-be poets by 'In Search of Poetry', and the bold metaphysical yearning of 'Eternal', these poems express a vast sprawl of experience and feeling, from one of twentieth-century literature's most vital voices.
