[New Directions](/source/New_Directions_Publishing)) translated by Donald D. Walsh ***Residence on Earth*** ([Spanish](/source/Spanish_language): *Residencia en la tierra*) is book of poetry by Chilean poet [Pablo Neruda](/source/Pablo_Neruda). *Residence on Earth* came out in three volumes, in 1933, 1935, and 1947. Neruda wrote the book over a span of two decades, from 1925 until 1945.[1] The first volume of *Residence on Earth* was published by Nascimento on 16 February 1933 in an edition of 100 copies. In a letter to his friend and fellow writer [Héctor Eandi](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=H%C3%A9ctor_Eandi&action=edit&redlink=1), Neruda wrote '*Residencia en la tierra* is being printed at this very moment in a luxury edition of just 100 copies, by Nascimento. It will be a stupendous edition. You can count on one copy, the only I'll be able to send to Argentina. It will cost 50 Chilean dollars and I don't think that it will be on sale in Buenos Aires.'[2] Collections in *Residence on Earth*:[3] - Series I (1925–1931) - Dream Horse - Savor - Ars Poetica - Burial in the East - Gentleman Alone - Ritual of My Legs - Nocturnal Collection - Series II (1931–1935) - Walking Around - Ode with a Lament - [Alberto Rojas Jiménez](/source/Alberto_Rojas_Jim%C3%A9nez) Comes Flying - There's No Forgetting: Sonata - Series III (1935–1945) - From: The Woes and the Furies - A Few Things Explained - How Spain Was ## References 1. **[^](#cite_ref-1)** Pablo Neruda, Donald Devenish Walsh, Jim Harrison.
