Poet-translator Sam Hamill celebrates the erotic spirit in all its forms, from the passion of sexual desire to the intense longing for spiritual union. This collection ranges from anonymous Egyptian love songs (circa 1500 BCE) via the Romans, Greeks, Persians, Jacobeans, Romantics and Decadents, up to moderns such as Adrienne Rich and Pablo Neruda. Many of the poems, from bawdy English ballads to Sufi songs of spiritual enchantment, are presented in new translations.
