The Gaucho Martín Fierro

The Gaucho Martín Fierro

This is perhaps the most successful English translation of the first part of the classic poem of the Argentine gaucho. The translators capture the poems strong narrative pull, & give a believable rendering of the gaucho personality by imitating the colloquial speech & capturing the earthy tone of the original stanzas…. -Library Journal.
