Description

Grapes and the Wind is a collection of poetry that traverses the extremes of life, from the humble to the historic. Pablo Neruda's work retains its power to move, hold, shock and inspire in this fine translation.

Michael Straus brings to light Neruda's identity as an ego obscured in the surrealism of plants, places and people. The poems explore a world that is both beautiful and flawed, where politics and daily life are intertwined with the natural world.

This translation offers a unique perspective on Neruda's work, one that reveals his love for the blue planet and its brilliant shimmer. With this offering, our understanding of the poet's span of perspective is deepened, as existentially expressed in its epilogue.
