Neruda, Pablo (1904-1973)

Twenty love poems and a song of despair / Pablo Neruda ; translated by W.S. Merwin ; introduction by Cristina García ; illustrations by Jan Thomas Dicks - San Francisco, CA : Chronicle Books , 1993, 1969. - 79 p. ; 19 cm.

Unequalled in their grace, earthiness, and evocation of sensual longing, the love poems of Pablo Neruda are perhaps the most lyrical and widely read of this century. A perennial best-seller since it was published in Chile nearly 70 years ago, Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair is now offered for the first time in a beautiful gift edi-tion. A superb translation and striking, richly coloured illustrations make this an eloquent gift.
