Review :
Praise for William Baer's Poems and Translations: Luís de Camões: Selected Sonnets: William Baer's brilliant translation of Luís de Camões's Selected Sonnets is a literary achievement and one that will bring renewed interest to these classic texts. Students and all lovers of poetry will find it extremely valuable. - Virgil Suárez Long overshadowed by the poet's great epic, Camões's sonnets emerge here in splendid isolation to reveal their own greatness. Baer's translations superbly capture their deepest pride, passion, pathos, and dynamic energy. - William J. KennedyBorges & Other Sonnets: William Baer now steps forward into the first rank of contemporary American poets. - Jeffrey Hart William Baer's new poetry collection is the most significant book of sonnets since Edna St. Vincent Millay's Fatal Interview more than 70 years ago. - Samuel Maio "Borges" and Other Sonnets will come to be identified as one of the spearhead books of the new literary movement being fostered by the American sonnet. - Felix Stefanile
