nura_aziz's review against another edition
3.0
Rupanya memang setiap baris puisi dalam buku ini ialah pertanyaan. Patutlah ia dinamakan Kitab Pertanyaan.
Cuma mungkin saya yang belum bersedia untuk membaca buku puisi ini, kerana ianya tidak memberikan saya perasaan yang mendalam. Malahan lebih banyak yang tidak difahami. Dan ada juga yang bercanggah dengan kepercayaan saya.
Ingatkan buku puisi yang nipis ni dapat dihabiskan dalam jangkamasa yang singkat, rupanya walaupun ringkas tetapi sukar untuk difahami. Memang tak boleh nak baca laju-laju. Dan buat beberapa ketika, saya misplaced pulak buku ni, so bertambah lambat la masa nak habiskan.
Rasanya perlu dibaca lagi di masa yang lebih sesuai.

Beautiful selection of thought-provoking questions - a great place to start for people who are just getting into poetry!

This is my first time reading Pablo Neruda's work. Left me intrigued and will definitely read more in the future. The book of Questions was a collection of Questions that striked Neruda's curiosity and it did to me too.

Hard to tell exactly just how much I'll take away from this lovely book of poems since I'll probably need them all to sit with me for a while.
kvothes's review
the real question is how to engage with the work of a rapist.
i did love this book—a lot, and almost despite myself—context is something i cannot ignore—i like the places the queries themselves led me; i wish writers wouldn’t poison their own shadows.
