Five T'ang Poets

Five T'ang Poets is translated by David Young. This is an excellent representation of five famous Chinese poets: Wang Wei, Li Po, Tu Fu, Li Ho, Li Shang-Yin. None of these poets specialize in haiku, this is real Chinese poetry beautifully translated. A wonderful introduction to these five great artists.

Ratings: 7th grade - 8 out of 10.
