Love Poems by Pablo Neruda

---

Bought at a store in the Mission in SF two weeks ago. Horrible translation with maybe two great poems and some other mid works. Still, cute edition and “in you the earth” still has to be the best erotic poem that never falters into grossness - that and the opening poem from “20 poems of love and one lament.” There’s also a good one in here about an island and her being a little leaf on his chest. That one got me too.
