The Solitudes: A Dual-Language Edition with Parallel Text (Penguin Classics) ReviewFirst, I am not a Spanish speaker... but I can read Spanish with a dictionary nearby. Second, I am easy to please with a translation as all I want basically is a "trot" to save me time looking up words and figuring out grammar. I think that if the translator spends years trying to present the poet's works in a truly accurate manner in English that usually means the translator has re-created (which leaves this puzzled reader wondering just who is the author of the poem). Happily, this translation does not attempt a re-creation nor does it force the poem into what would likely be absurd contortions to make it rhyme in English. It is literal enough for interlinear readers like me. One can always quibble over word choice (e.g., Appetence for Codicia, which sent me to the dictionary) but overall the reading is easy and a great pleasure.The Solitudes: A Dual-Language Edition with Parallel Text (Penguin Classics) Overview
