It gathers in a single volume the lyrical output of Antonio Machado, a poet of the Generation of '98: Soledades, Campos de Castilla and Nuevas Canciones, with a poem by Rubén Darío as a preface.

Suitable for readers of poetry and Spanish literature and for those seeking a collected edition of Antonio Machado's work.
Antonio Cipriano José María y Francisco de Santa Ana Machado y Ruiz, simply known as Antonio Machado, was a Spanish poet and one of the leading figures of the Spanish literary movement known as the Generation of '98. His work, initially modernist, evolved towards an intimate form of symbolism with romantic traits. He gradually developed a style characterised by both an engagement with humanity on one side and an almost Taoist contemplation of existence on the other, a synthesis that, according to Machado, echoed the most ancient popular wisdom. In Gerardo Diego's words, Machado "spoke in verse and lived in poetry."
