Jaime Sabines is a national treasure in Mexico. He is considered by Octavio Paz to be instrumental to the genesis of modern Latin American poetry and "one of the best poets" of the Spanish language. Toward the end of his life, he had published for over fifty years and brought in crowds of more than 3,000 to readings in his native country. Coined the "Sniper of Literature" by Cuban poet Roberto Fernandez Retamar, Sabines brought poetry to the streets. His vernacular, authentic poems are accessible: meant not for other poets, or the established or elite, but for himself and for the people.Sabines, Jaime is the author of 'Tarumba : The Selected Poems of Jaime Sabines', published 1979 under ISBN 9780918786210 and ISBN 0918786215.
