review on heaven stories pablo nerudo,
By Renata mcneill (usa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Heaven Stones (Las Piedras Del Cielo/Review International Writers Series, No 2) (Paperback)
Now, this pablo nerudo translation brings you into the spanish language and allows you to feel what the author is saying. In fact, the poems have more meaning reading them in english becuase of the usage of adjectives. Numeral I and II show good description use in english translation. The english translation seems so much fuller and descriptive opposed to the spanish version.
