100 Love Sonnets: A Bilingual Spanish and English Edition

4.37 (16,485 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Pablo Neruda

Translated by: Gustavo Escobedo

Forty years after Pablo Nerudas death, this compilation of his sonnets, unlike previous translations, captures the true spirit and verbal dexterity of his lesser-known genre. 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, who also wrote these bold and sensual sonnets.

In this new edition, the poems are followed by three essays on reading Neruda and his poetic effect by the notable poets and translators A. F. Moritz, Beatriz Hausner, and Torontos Poet Laureate (20122015) George Elliott Clarke, as well as a new afterword by the translator, questions for discussion, and recommended readings. See more
