Description

Pablo Neruda's oeuvre encompasses a wide range of poetic forms, but one that holds particular significance is the ode. In this bilingual edition, edited by Ilan Stavans and featuring translations by Philip Levine, Paul Muldoon, Mark Strand, and Margaret Sayers Peden, all 225 odes are gathered together for the first time in English.

These poems, spanning Neruda's career, express his deep connection to the world around him. From the natural world to human relationships, they explore themes of meaning, identity, and our place in the universe. This collection offers a unique insight into the poet's inner life and his vision for poetry as a powerful force during times of change.

Through its diverse and expressive poems, All the Odes presents a lasting statement on the role of poetry in our lives, inviting readers to reflect on their own connections to the world and to each other.
