Jose Juan Tablada (1871-1945) wrote more than 20 books on a range of subjects in several genres but is best known as an avant-garde poet of the Mexican Modernista movement. Now all three volumes of his experimental poetry - Un dia…poemas sinteticos, El jarro de flores (disociaciones liricas), and Li-Po y otros poemas - have been translated into English, carefully researched and crafted, and presented here for the first time in one volume.

The work also includes translations of Tablada poems that appeared in print prior to his primary works. These precursors trace the path that would lead Tablada to his great experiment.
