Oscar Hahn has been hailed by postmodernist master Enrique Lihn as "the premier poet of his generation". Pablo Neruda praised Hahn's "great originality and intensity", and Mario Vargas Llosa has called Hahn's work "magnificent and truly original . . . the most personal I've read in the poetry of our language in a long time". Stolen Verses and Other Poems affirms Hahn's reputation as a master of his craft. Deftly employing forms ranging from sonnet to free verse, this bilingual collection embodies what translator James Hoggard calls "strangeness in the world". Stolen Verses and Other Poems is a passionate work from one of the most important contemporary voices in poetry.
