His love poems are earthy and transcendent, and his political poems are the work of a man as incisive, impassioned, and ferociously intelligent as he was sensual. “Neruda’s poetry inevitably calls forth Wagnerian language from overwhelmed observers—force of nature, “avalanche,” “volcano’ . . . [He] led an epic life as a revolutionary prophet and . . . national hero in Chile” (The New York Times Book Review).\nBen Belitt has drawn the 138 selections in Five Decades from all of Neruda’s major works, including the early volumes Residence on Earth, General Song, Elemental Odes, Voyages and Homecomings, Book of Vagaries, A Hundred Love Sonnets, Black Island Memorial, and the later The Hands of Day, World’s End, and Skystones.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0802130356\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0802130356.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Neruda, Pablo|Belitt, Ben\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
