Great poet, confused man, totally overblown and overshadows Chilean poets, in what really is an exceptionally lyrical country, and thus has earned the title "chancho culia'o" in Chile, which means Fucking Pig. That title might have also come from his obesity and purported numerous affairs. Neruda was a limousine liberal.

I have no particular opionion of Neruda, but methinks that poetry looses a bit in translation. See also Il Postino, an Italian film featuring Neruda as a central character, helping the protagonist woo the village beauty. Good movie. Perhaps it is more lyrical in the original Spanish?

Rudyard Kipling was a virilent racist, Shakespeare unkind to the Jews, even Twain's depictions of race are a bit unseemly by today's standards. Obviously, it's valuable to hold our contemporaries to such standards and we shouldn't hesitate to point out the errors of previous generations, but that hardly means we should throw out their work. I'm sure you're not one of those PC types who wants to prevent public viewings of Birth of a Nation and keep Huckleberry Finn out of high schols.
