The Rules of the Game reintroduces Ludwig Zeller, the great Chilean-Canadian “poet’s poet,” through a selection of his most engaging works. These short poems span a development of almost sixty years. They are Zeller’s brief songs of eroticism and love, adventure and nostalgia, youthful ardour, the sorrow of age, and undying hope. They give the reader a great poet’s door into the riches of surrealism, European Romanticism, and the age-old Spanish lyric tradition. | The translations by A.F. Moritz often represent his fourth or fifth revisiting of the Zeller versions he has been producing since 1978.
