An NYRB Classics Original First published in 1956, Zama is now universally recognized as one of the masterpieces of modern Argentine and Spanish-language literature. Written in a style that is both precise and sumptuous, weirdly archaic and powerfully novel, Zama takes place in the last decade of the eighteenth century and describes the solitary, suspended existence of Don Diego de Zama, a highly placed servant of the Spanish crown who has been posted to Asunción, the capital of remote Paraguay. There, eaten up by pride, lust, petty grudges, and paranoid fantasies, he does as little as he possibly can while plotting his eventual transfer to Buenos Aires, where everything about his hopeless existence will, he is confident, be miraculously transformed and made good. Don Diego’s slow, nightmarish slide into the abyss is not just a tale of one man’s perdition but an exploration of existential, and very American, loneliness. Zama, with its stark dreamlike prose and spare imagery, is at once dense and unforeseen, terse and fateful, marked throughout by a haunting movement between sentences, paragraphs, and sections, so that every word seems to emerge from an ocean of things left unsaid. The philosophical depths of this great book spring directly from its dazzling prose.

Excerpt from Some Masterpieces of Latin Poetry, Thought Into English Verse I owe an explanation of the present volume's appearance so soon after that on Greek Dramatic and Bucolic Poetry. Both are instalments of a collection of specimens of Greek and Latin Poetry thought by me into English verse. In 1907 I published "The Poets: Chaucer to Tennyson;" later, revised and reprinted as "Five Centuries of English Verse." I have occupied and delighted the subsequent years with a sort of analogous service to the general lovers of poetry, not professed "scholars," in respect of Greek and Latin poetry. At least I did not hope to save labour, and have not spared it. Throughout the more than ten years devoted to the work I have continually been revising. Thus it is impossible even for myself to know how much energy has been devoted here or there. Measurement of thought is difficult. A verse may have cost me days to think from the original, while another corresponds at once, as if English born and bred. A result is that I have found bunches of charming Latin blossoms, willing, at whatever sacrifice of grace, to reflower in English air; and here they are!
