Pluriverse: New and Selected Poems charts the life-work of the celebrated poet Ernesto Cardenal-"one of the world's major poets" (Choice) and "the preeminent poet of Central America today" (Library Journal). Follow Cardenal's poetic development across six decades, from the early exteriorismo poems and romantic epigrams of the early 1950s, to the increasingly spiritual and political verse he wrote as priest and activist (including his classic revolutionary documentary poem "Zero Hour") to the shorter victory and ecology poems, and elegies to fallen Sandinistas, and on to the cosmic-mystical-scientific dimensions of his later work. "Here they are-" editor Jonathan Cohen writes in his Introduction, "to gladden your heart and enrich your soul."

From recordings of their dialogue, this extraordinary document of faith in the midst of struggle was composed. First published in four volumes, The Gospel in Solentiname was immediately acclaimed as a classic of liberation theology--a radical reading of the good news of Jesus from the perspective of the poor and the oppressed. (It was also banned by the Somoza dictatorship.)Forty years later The Gospel in Solentiname retains its freshness and power. Though times may have changed, the message of Jesus--as heard by these peasants--continues to challenge the rulers of our age and to inspire the poor with the hope of a different world.
