A beautiful, expansive collection of poems, sonnets, and a song. One of the premier poets in recent history. // Una hermosa y extensa colección de poemas, sonetos y una canción. Uno de los mejores poetas de la historia reciente, creo.
"Τώρα πια δεν την αγαπάω σίγουρα...
Μπορεί όμως και να την αγαπάω.
Βιάζεται ο έρωτας να λείψει κι αργεί να φύγει η λησμονιά"
Μπορεί όμως και να την αγαπάω.
Βιάζεται ο έρωτας να λείψει κι αργεί να φύγει η λησμονιά"

Though this be the last pain that she makes me suffer and these the last verses that I write for her.
“How you must have suffered getting accustomed to me,
my savage, solitary soul, my name that sends them all running.
So many times we have seen the morning star burn, kissing our eyes,
and over our heads the grey light unwinds in turning fans.”
This is a beautifully passionate exploration of love, longing, and heartbreak. Neruda’s mastery of language and his ability to evoke such intense emotions in a few lines is nothing short of remarkable. This collection captures the fervor of young love, the pain of unrequited feelings, and the melancholy that accompanies loss, all with a striking, lyrical elegance.
Each poem feels like a snapshot of raw emotion, the kind of profound longing that only poetry can express. Neruda writes with such depth, his words dripping with both tenderness and torment. From the hopeful, tender moments of affection to the tragic, soul-crushing heartache of love’s demise, the poems in this collection resonate with anyone who has experienced the complexities of love.
What sets this collection apart is Neruda's ability to blend physical desire with philosophical reflection, creating a love language that is both sensual and intellectual. His imagery is vivid and captivating, pulling the reader into the emotional landscape he paints with each word. I found myself returning to certain poems again and again, each time discovering a new layer of meaning and emotion.
This is a collection that speaks to the heart. If you're looking for poetry that transcends mere romanticism and delves into the complexities of human emotion with sincerity and depth, Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair is a must-read. Neruda's words are timeless, his expressions of love and despair eternal, and his poetry, simply put, is a gift to the soul.

I mean. Pablo Neruda poetry doesn’t need a review from me. The end.
