Extravagaria: A Bilingual Edition, Paperback/Pablo Neruda

Descriere

Extravagaria marks an important stage in Neruda's progress as a poet. The book was written just after he had returned to Chile after many wanderings and moved to his beloved Isla Negra on the Pacific coast. These sixty-eight poems thus denote a resting point, a rediscovery of sea and land, and an ``autumnal period`` (as the poet himself called it). In this book, Neruda developed a lyric poetry decidedly more personal than his earlier work.
