Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair : Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition
ISBN: 9780142437704
Publication Date: 1 December 2003

A beautifully packaged edition from "the greatest poet of the twentieth century-in any language (Gabriel Garcia Marquez)

First published in 1924, Veinte poemas de amor y una cancin desesperada remains among Pablo Neruda's most popular work. Daringly metaphorical and sensuous, this collection juxtaposes youthful passion with the desolation of grief. Drawn from the poet's most intimate and personal associations, the poems combine eroticism and the natural world with the influence of expressionism and the genius of a master poet. This edition features the newly corrected original Spanish text, with masterly English translations by award-winning poet W. S. Merwin on facing pages.

  • Includes twelve sketches by Pablo Picasso
  • New introduction by Cristina Garca
  • A Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition pacjaged with French flaps

About The Author When presenting the legendary Chilean poet Pablo Neruda with the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971, Karl Ragnar Gierow of the Swedish Academy proclaimed, "Neruda is like catching a condor with a butterfly net. Neruda, in a nutshell, is an unreasonable proposition: the kernel bursts the shell."
