"Veinte Poemas de Amor y una Canción Desesperada"

"Veinte Poemas de Amor y una Canción Desesperada" or "Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair" in english, is a work that belongs to the time of the poet's youth, it was written and blog when you did not even twenty years.
 
This work of Pablo Neruda, is composed of twenty poems of love themes and a final poem "La Canción Desesperada". The poems have no titles, maybe that's why we seek to give greater unity to the book and use a larger effort by the reader in his interpretation.

The origin of the book is explained as a conscious evolution of his poetry that comes out of the molds of postmodernism that dominated his first compositions and his first book, Crepusculario.

Though "Veinte Poemas de Amor y una Canción Desesperada" is based on real love experiences of the young poet. It is a book of love that is not directed to one only lover. The poet has mixed in his verses the physical characteristics of several real women of his youth to create an unreal image of the beloved that doesn't correspond to any of them specifically, but represents an idea of ​​the object of his love purely poetic.

I recomend you this book because when I read it I felt many sensations and because it is a book easy and quickly to read.  Also I think you should read this book because in these times poetry is lagging behind our literary culture and, in my opinion, is a very effective and sensible way to let it disappear in the near future.
