“The Barnstone translations read like poems in English, important poems, and consistently so. Through their illuminating study—the best examination of Wang Wei in English—and their translations, the Barnstones have established for our generation a new model of rendering a major Chinese poet in English. We have a world poet who at last has a consummate form in English.”—Anthony Kerrigan
