*by T***W on Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2011*

And I, infinitesimal being,drunk with the great starryvoid,likeness, image ofmystery,felt myself a pure partof the abyss,I wheeled with the stars,my heart broke loose on the wind.~ from "Poetry"Normally I write down my impressions of the poems I'm reading. While reading the poems in this book I was however stunned into silence. These poems are best read for pure pleasure. The only thing that did surprise me about this collection was the little touches of horror I'd never noticed in other Neruda poems. Like in the poem about the mermaid she swims away to her death. Why could she not have swum away to freedom? Or as Neruda contemplates a woman being silent he also wishes her dead, but at the end is glad she isn't. I guess I thought this book would only be filled with the most romantic poems ever written so I was a little surprised by sad endings and morbid contemplations. And yet, still the poems were beautiful. Perhaps some of the most beautiful poems I've ever read. If you are new to Neruda's poetry this would be a great place to start. If you have read many of his poems, this book may have a few surprises. I think you would also love:

I had this back when I was in college and lost it. It was recommended by a buddy of mine. Loved it and had to buy it again, in its original cover too.

    Good poems, good film, bad book
  

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2009*

Like other reviewers, I like Neruda and enjoyed the film in which these poems are featured. I wish I could say the same for this book. That it contains only ten poems in Spanish together with their English translations is no mark against it. That it was rushed into print in order to cash in on the film's appeal did not prevent me from buying it. But the volume has been carelessly edited, and typographical errors abound. "Angela adónica," for example, contains no fewer than four such errors within the first ten lines; the poem is only sixteen lines long. Similarly, "Fábula de la sirena y los borrachos" contains an absurd misprint in the very first line: "Todos estos señoras" for "Todos estos señores." Fans of "Il Postino" will be glad to find so many of the poems quoted in the film brought together in one book, though they will search in vain for the poem in which "la sonrisa se extiende como una mariposa en tu rostro." But serious readers looking for reliable Spanish texts of these beautiful poems had better look elsewhere.
