"Death without end" is a profund poem, but I think its structure allow it to be enjoyed in translation (of course, all poetry loses in translation, but most of the time it's better than nothing). This universal poem is an apex of poetry, Mexican or otherwise. It is transparent, crystalline, hard and dry, and it borders on problems rarely touched upon by poetry. The circular, repetitive movement of life: "life is death without end". Form, the continent and what it contains. The final section is pure, raw emotion expressed in a dry, brutal but unsentimental way. Gorostiza's is a multilayered poem. It can and should be read repeatedly, to find new meanings and messages. Its music, its rhythm, its depth and clarity make it a most beautiful and meaningful poem. I hope someone out there is interested in reading it: there is no way it will disappoint.
