«Cien sonetos de amor» is Pablo Neruda's poetry collection, published by Seix Barral in paperback (126 pages, in Spanish).
Neruda writes a hundred sonnets dedicated to his wife; he renounces the sonorous and constructive rhetoric of the classical sonnet and seeks a bare, vibrant word close to the image. The collection reflects the maturity of his love poetry and his ability to express love with intensity and simplicity.
This 1999 edition belongs to the Biblioteca Breve collection, number 407, from Seix Barral; the work was originally published in 1959.
For poetry readers and lovers of Latin American literature.
Pablo Neruda was a Chilean poet-diplomat and politician who won the 1971 Nobel Prize in Literature. Neruda became known as a poet when he was 13 years old and wrote in a variety of styles, including surrealist poems, historical epics, political manifestos, a prose autobiography, and passionate love poems such as the ones in his collection Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair (1924).
