Background and composition
The book belongs to Neruda's youthful period and is often described as a conscious evolution of his poetic style, breaking away from the dominant modernist molds that characterized his earlier compositions and his first book, Crepusculario.
The collection comprises twenty love poems, followed by a final poem titled The Song of Despair. Except for the final poem, the individual poems in the collection are untitled.
