Summary: good introduction, translations are shaky
Comment: to me, they seem a bit contrived because he insists on having an english rhyme scheme and meter which makes me think he probably gave away something in translation.
The introduction is a good basic introduction to the biographical data and accuracy available about the poet, some of his influences, and subject matter.
I usually shy away from rhyming translations, but this is pretty good, and there are some excellent poems and stories in here...
