The Essential Neruda: Selected Poems (Bilingual Edition) (English and Spanish Edition)

This collection of Neruda's most essential poems will prove indispensable. Selected by a team of poets and prominent Neruda scholars in both Chile and the U.S., this is a definitive selection that draws from the entire breadth and width of Neruda's various styles and themes. An impressive group of translators that includes Alastair Reid, Stephen Mitchell, Robert Hass, Stephen Kessler and Jack Hirschman, have come together to revisit or completely retranslate the poems; and a handful of previously untranslated works are included as well. This selection sets the standard for a general, high--quality introduction to Neruda's complete oeuvre. Pablo Neruda was born in Chile in 1904. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971.

If you are a Romantic and do not want to be in a relationship, this is all you need for now. This man was touched by Cupid himself. He expresses just how many of us feel when love can be confusing and at times sacrificing but always worthwhile and still beautiful.

If you are a lover of Neruda's works and even modestly able to read and understand Spanish, you simply must read his works in the Spanish language. As is often the case with translated works, there are nuances of meaning and slight shades and hues that color the feel of each phrase, and sometimes those are lost when the pieces are read only in English.

I highly recommend this book to those who wish to experience the beauty of Neruda's poetry in Spanish. You will fall in love with it all over again.

This beautiful collection of poetry contains both English & Spanish versions of Neruda's poetry. It contains great breadth & depth at the core and encompasses the vastness of Neruda's work - love, politics, everyday life, landscape. This is a GREAT gift book!
