The most comprehensive English-language collection of work ever by
"the greatest poet of the twentieth century--in any language"
(Gabriel Garcia Marquez)
"In his work a continent awakens to consciousness." So wrote the
Swedish Academy in awarding the Nobel Prize to Pablo Neruda, the
author of more than thirty-five books of poetry and one of Latin
America's most revered writers, lionized during his lifetime as
"the people's poet."
This selection of Neruda's poetry, the most comprehensive single
volume available in English, presents nearly six hundred poems,
scores of them in new and sometimes multiple translations, and many
accompanied by the Spanish original. In his introduction, Ilan
Stavans situates Neruda in his native milieu as well as in a
contemporary English-language one, and a group of new translations
by leading poets testifies to Neruda's enduring, vibrant legacy
among English-speaking writers and readers today.
