Pablo Neruda’s Odes

With Edward Hirsch, Philip Levine, Paul Muldoon, and Ilan Stavans.

Pablo Neruda’s first reading in the United States took place at the Poetry Center in June of 1966. Said Neruda that night: “To all of you who come to meet a poet who came from so far away, for this feeling of fellowship I never expected, I thank you.” Upon publication of All the Odes—he once committed to writing one per week—contemporary poet-translators gather to read from his work. Winner of the Nobel Prize in 1971, Neruda was “the greatest poet of the 20th century—in any language,” wrote Gabriel García Márquez.
