Book Review - On the Blue Shore of Silence: Poems of the Sea by Pablo Neruda - Page 2

Part of: Corazon y Alma: Chicano and Latino Books

The presentation is absolutely beautiful and every page is both a feast for the eyes and food for the soul. Even the typeset and Neruda’s name on the dust jacket painted in a blurry sea blue reflect the ocean that the poems are about.

Pablo Neruda has been a favorite poet of mine for many, many years and this stunning book is a wonderful addition to my collection of his anthologies. It is a beautiful piece to celebrate his centenary.

    Wow, I didn't realize it was National Poetry Month. And I love Neruda. This is a great post, thank you for sharing. My friend, Mark Eisner is working a great Pablo project of his own right now.
