The University of Texas Press, which holds the copyright to Neruda's love sonnets on behalf of Neruda's estate, has ordered me to take this site down. It may be possible at some time in the future to obtain permission to put the pages back up, so please check back periodically.

In the meantime, thanks to all who have written me to express your love for Pablo Neruda's work and your appreciation for this site. I regret that I can't send individual poems via email, as my time just doesn't permit that. I suggest that if you are looking for a particular poem, you call or visit a library or bookstore. Most of Neruda's works are easily obtainable in inexpensive volumes. If you are specifically looking for the love sonnets (and yes, that means the poem from "Patch Adams" that everyone wants), click here.
