Essential! Yes, this is the Essential Neruda. It's not complete, but it covers all of his topics and contains some wonderful gems and insight. If you only buy one Neruda volume, make it this one.
Pablo Neruda Book 1 I gave this product as a gift...the person that received it enjoyed it very much..a unique publishing of Neruda's works.
Excellent Translations, Great Aid For Learning A Different Side Of Spanish Outside The Confines Of A Boring Textbook I highly recommend this edition! It's wonderful to go back and forth, line to line, reading the English translations first, then the original Spanish. Translations are fluid! A fantastic way to introduce yourself to one of the greatest poets of all time!
Splendid poetry!!
This book is an awesome work with splendid poems that have something to say to everyone.
Side-by-side texts with their translations are great in making the reader evaluate the meanings and nuances in both languages.
I love these verses:
"And the air came in with orange-blossom fingers
over all those asleep:
a thousand years of air, months, weeks of air,
of blue wind, of iron cordillera,
that were like soft hurricanes of footsteps
polishing the lonely boundary of the stone."
The imagery is vivid and thrilling, like in these verses:
"Full woman, carnal apple, hot moon,
thick smell of seaweed, crushed mud and light,
what obscure clarity opens between your columns?
What ancient night does man touch with his senses?"
I can recommend this poetry to anyone.
