Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Charged with sensuality and passion, Pablo Neruda's love poems are the most celebrated of the Nobel Prize winner's oeuvre, captivating readers with earthbound images and reveling in a fiery re-imagining of the world. Mostly written on the island paradise of Capri (the idyllic setting of the Oscar-winning movie Il Postino), Love Poems embraces the seascapes surrounding the poet and his love Matilde Urrutia, their waves and shores saturated with a new, yearning eroticism.

Synopsis:

Sensual, earthy love poems that formed the basis for the popular movie Il Postino, now in a beautiful gift book perfect for weddings, Valentine's Day, anniversaries, or just to say "I love you!"

Synopsis:

Charged with sensuality and passion, Neruda's love poems caused a scandal when published anonymously in 1952. In later editions, these verses became the most celebrated of the Nobel Prize winner's oeuvre. This wonderful book collects Neruda's most passionate verses.
