The Penguin Book of Spanish Verse by J M Cohen
John Michael Cohen was a prolific translator of European literature into English. After working in his father’s manufacturing business from 1925 until 1940, he was moved by a wartime shortage of teachers to become a schoolmaster. In addition to teaching young people, he spent the war years teaching himself Spanish and Russian, and he launched his translation career with the first English translation of poems by Boris Pasternak, then unknown outside the Soviet Union.
This is a collection of Spanish verse and includes and introduction by Cohen
