Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wonderfully translated collection of Spanish classics!
Review: This high-caliber collection was singled out for praise in Harold Bloom's "The Western Canon" as a Great Book. Roy Campbell is a miraculous translator. Included here are Calderon's "Life is a Dream," Lope de Vega's "Fuente Ovejuna," and Tirso de Molina's "Don Juan"--masterpieces one and all. Don't deny yourself this book, and if you like this, look for David Johnston's translations of Lope de Vega's "Madness in Valencia" and "The Gentleman from Olmedo," Edwin Honig's superb translation "Calderon: Six Plays," Paul Whitworth's translation of Tirso de Molina's "Revenge of Tamar," and Laurence Boswell's translation of Molina's "Don Gil of the Green Breeches" and "Damned for Despair." Fair warning: once you start reading these, you won't be able to stop!
