"En el libro, Neruda hace un recorrido por su trayectoria vital: los fumaderos de opio en Tailandia, la Birmania dominada por los ingleses, sus experiencias con todo tipo de mujeres en todo tipo de situaciones, las conversaciones entre el poeta y Ernesto Che Guevara, sus viajes a México o a la URSS, su consulado en España durante la Segunda República Española y su ardua labor tras el estallido de la Guerra Civil española para salvar de la cárcel y de la muerte a republicanos, anarquistas y todo aquel que fuera oprimido bajo el régimen franquista, embarcándolos en el Winnipeg rumbo al exilio. Estos y otros sucesos se recrean con nitidez en la mente del autor"--Page 4 of cover.

Pablo Neruda has been hailed as the greatest poet of the 20th century and was a Nobel laureat. Besides his life of writing, in these memoirs he also recounts his distinguished career as a diplomat and politician, during which he came to know iconic figures including Ghandi, Che Guevara and Mao Tse Tung.

Book Details


First Sentence

"UNDER the volcanoes, besides the snow-capped mountains, among the huge lakes, the fragrant, the silent, the tangled Chilean forest . . . My feet sink down into the dead leaves, a fragile twig crackles, the giant rauli trees rise in all their bristling height, a bird from the cold jungle passes over, flaps its wings, and stops in the sunless branches."
