A lyrical collection of 25 odes by the Nobel Prize–winning Chilean poet Pablo Neruda, presented in a bilingual format (Spanish and English), each paired with a delicate pencil illustration by Ferris Cook. The poems celebrate everyday objects—from bread and soap to a bed and a box of tea—revealing their essence through simple yet resonant language. With his characteristic blend of intimacy and universality, Neruda draws attention to the beauty of ordinary life in accessible yet evocative verse.
