That is a lovely poem--one of my students read another as her favorite piece of food writing. I'll have to look for this book because I love well-made, beautiful books--when the content and presentation match, it's bliss.

You've redeemed my disgust with the appearance of all the Valentine's Day merch.

Target was actually putting out Valentine's Day stuff a few days BEFORE Christmas. So, so wrong.

I love him. This is a beautiful book--thanks for alerting me to it.

where did you find that image of the book with the open pages? I can't find the link to it on google...

[christy_lenzi]

found it!

It is indeed a gorgeous little book. I like it just as much as I like my little copy of Dylan Thomas's A Child's Christmas in Wales.

I do so love Pablo Neruda.

[kellyrfineman]

Me too. I wish I'd studied him in school!

That's what I call love poetry. Gorgeous images. Thanks for sharing your lovely little book. I would have found it impossible to resist, too, if I had stumbled upon it in a bookstore. :)

Full price, it's only $13.

You need this one, I think. Also, you may need these if you don't already have them - I thought of you when I saw them at B&N. I may go back and get a set for myself!

Kelly, I cannot think of a better gift to give oneself! I have treasured this volume. So yay for kismet!! :)

I put my post up before I clicked through to your page - then laughed when I saw the Neruda theme. How marvelous that you also have this wonderful little book!
