  • More of Neruda

    Having loved Neruda's poem Tonight I can write , my poem I would save from the waves. With this book I've finally got around to reading more of his work for which much thanks. I do regret not knowing Spanish as the sound of his words would be good to hear.

    Great book but the only poem I was interested is not there 😔 "so I wait for you like an empty house". I found his other poems in this book hard to understand

  • Powerful read

    Only a slim volume but lovely to read and has all the poems written in the original Spanish and then translated very nicely to English on the opposite page.
