Pablo Neruda is still one of the most widely read, influential and beloved 20th-century poets. He was a Nobel Laureate, famous for his politically engaged lyrics. He also wrote bold and sensual sonnets. Now, more than four decades after his death, this compilation of his sonnets, unlike previous translations, captures the true spirit and verbal dexterity of the lesser-known genre.
“This handsome, bilingual edition…is a worthy tribute and a rollicking good read, staying true to the poet’s expansive, idiosyncratic style.”
—The Globe and Mail
