This poetic anthology presents a selection of the work of Juan Ramón Jiménez, Nobel Prize winner in Literature in 1956. The book ranges from his early works, noted for their emotion, intensity, and purity, to his mature period, marked by a poetry of great symbolic force and a deep desire for transcendence. The selection and prologue are the work of Antonio Colinas, who has chronologically ordered the most representative samples of the poet's published and unpublished books.
