<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Neruda paints a portrait of his beloved home at Isla Negra in this English-only edition of a White Pine Press best-seller.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Few writers are as integrally bound to a place as Pablo Neruda was to the landscape of Isla Negra on Chile's coast. From his arrival there in the late 1930s to his death in 1973, Neruda captured Isla Negra in images fundamental to an understanding of his work. It was, according to Martin Espada, at Isla Negra where Neruda in the company of his muse, walked alongside the source of his most lyrical inspiration, the sea...and discovered a new way of seeing, as the ocean became a living metaphor for the infinite riches of the world. The poems, selected from three volumes of Neruda's work, are presented with photographs of Neruda and his house in an attractive gift format. <p/>Nobel Prize-winning poet <b>Pablo Neruda, </b> who died in 1973, remains one of the most influential voices in world literature.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Pablo Neruda (1904-1973) is regarded by many as one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. Born in rural Chile he moved to the capital, Santiago, and published his first book in 1923. During the 20s and 30s he served as a diplomat and was ambassador to Spain at the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War. This event profoundly changed his writing style to one of addressing social and political concerns. He returned to Chile in 1938 but spent many years in exile due to political conditions. Neruda won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1971. Dennis Maloney is a poet, translator, and landscape architect. His books of translation include The House In the Sand and Isla Negra by pablo Neruda, The Naked Women by Juan Ramon Jimenez, and There is No Road: Proverbs of Antonio Machado.
