Publisher Description: Premio Nobel de Literatura "El m s grande poeta del siglo xx en cualquier idioma". --Gabriel Garc a M rquez Un gran xito desde el mismo momento de su publicaci n en 1924 cuando el autor contaba con tan solo diecinueve a os, Veinte poemas de amor y una canci n desesperada caus un fuerte revuelo en la conservadora sociedad chilena debido a su franco retrato de la relaci n del autor con dos mujeres. Se convirti inmediatamente en una de las colecciones de poes a m s le das, estableciendo a Neruda como una de las m s singulares voces de la poes a en espa ol del siglo XX. Incluso le do hoy, sigue sorprendiendo por su sincera descripci n del amor y el sexo. Tan pasional y hermosa como Veinte poemas de amor y una canci n desesperada, Cien sonetos de amor incluye algunos de los m s sensuales e intensos poemas de Pablo Neruda. Aunque publicada treinta y cinco a os m s tarde, retiene la ingenuidad y la intensa pasi n del joven Neruda, mezclada con la sagaz mirada de un hombre que lo ha visto todo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The most popular works by Chile's Nobel Prize-winning poet, Pablo Neruda. Now his two books are kept in one book. When Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair was first published, it launched into the international spotlight a young and unknown poet whose writings would ignite a generation. Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair is a collection of romantic poems by Pablo Neruda, first published in 1924 when Neruda was 19. It was Neruda's second published work and made his name as a poet. It's Neruda's best-known work, and has sold more than 20 million copies. It remains the best- selling poetry book in the Spanish language ever, almost 100 years after its first publication. 100 Love Sonnets is a collection of one hundred sonnets written by Chilean poet Pablo Neruda and was published first in 1959 in Spanish. Against the backdrop of Isla Negra -- the sea and wind, the white sand with its scattering of delicate wild flowers, the hot sun and salty smells of the Pacific -- Nobel laureate Pablo Neruda sets these joyfully sensual poems in celebration of his love. The subject of that love: Matilde Urrutia de Neruda, the poet's beloved wife. In the book poems are kept in four sections - Morning, Afternoon, Evening and Night. |
