I have come to realize that maybe Neruda isn’t for me, as a lot of the poems when made my head. But it could also be this translation which when reading the poems already felt pretty bad and it feels nice to see that other people on this app agree with me.
Overall I liked five of the poems within this collection:
1. Body of a woman
5. So that you will hear me
8. White Bee
11. Your Breast is enough
16. In my sky at twilight
And loved one:
20. Tonight I can write
This one almost almost almost brought me to tears and kind of made reading this collection full of poems that I didn’t like worth it because of how it contained this one.

I still want to read this, as I enjoyed everything I ready but I’m not currently in the right mindspace and I don’t want readers this to start feeling like a chore.

After close reading this text during my second reading I learned to appreciate it a lot more and come to the conclusion it’s actually really brilliant. Going from 2 stars to 4 stars.
