Lol He was majorly important in Peru, and translating him was/still is considered impossible, primarily for his use of made-up phrases/sounds/neologisms and fluctuating registers. Though some have tried, no English poet's singular approach has been completely successful, depending on what you call successful as an English translation.

I actually just got off of it and now I’m Chiclayo. If anyone was considering it, I’d highly recommend hostels where they give you a lot of food for cheap and you meet a ton of other backpackers like you. A couple didn’t even know a little spanish like these 2 guys from the Netherlands I was talking too. And I’ve been embarrassing myself left and right but I just laugh it off, say perdon or gracias and move on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
