Description

---

The great poet Antonio Machado was initially inspired by modernism, matured as a poet in symbolism and embraced an almost ascetic thought in his aphorisms. His life journey ran from childhood in a courtyard in Seville to maturity as a teacher in the fields of Castile and, finally, Colliure's death in French exile. This selection of poems offers a perfect sample of his work and of his free and unbearable character.
