The Wounded Stag: 54 Poems by Bienvenido N. Santos

Out of print title.

"In his poems, he gives the impression of the lonely artist controlling his demon as he views the 'faceless hostility of the world.' A readin of the poems will disclose this impression. " "...He fuses the two worlds he knows, the America of the past which is as real in his mind as the Philippines he sees with the considering eye..." "But only a close reading of the poems will give the reader that understanding and enjoyment which comes from a knowledge of the poet's role in an uncertain world, of his biography, his dramatization of myth, and his control of the words as integral parts of experience. The effort will be rewarded by a scrutiny of these poems." Manuel A. Viray Manila, Philippines 1956
