Then Come Back: The Lost Neruda Poems by Pablo Neruda, Forrest Gander

5.0

Get ready to gag: my wife and I read this to each other in bed over the course of two nights. I even did a few of them in Spanish as mi español is as rusty as a crank chain. Truly, Neruda's one of the romantic greats for incredibly obvious reasons, but I found the heart of this collection to be more his love for his culture and country than his usual romantic fare. It was perfect. (My Spanish is still muy malo but I'm working on it.)
