Abrojos
by Ruben Darío
'Abrojos' Summary
“Abrojos” is a collection of Rubén Darío's early poems, published in Santiago de Chile in 1887. These poems were written during Darío's youth and were influenced by the romanticism and symbolism of the time. The collection features themes of love, loss, nature, and the human condition, often expressed through metaphors and imagery. Darío's use of language is poetic and evocative, creating a sense of wonder and mystery in his works. The collection demonstrates Darío's early development as a poet and his commitment to exploring the depths of human emotion and experience. While some critics have considered these early poems to be less polished than his later works, “Abrojos” still provides a valuable glimpse into the development of a literary giant.Book Details
