| Publisher Description: Un gran exito desde el mismo momento de su publicacion en 1924, cuando el autor contaba con tan solo diecinueve anos, Veinte Poemas de Amor y Una Cancion Desesperada causo un fuerte revuelo en la conservadora sociedad chilena debido a su franco retrato de la relacion del autor con dos mujeres. Se convirtio inmediatamente en una de las colecciones de poesia mas leidas, estableciendo a Neruda como una de las mas singulares voces de la poesia en espanol del siglo XX. Incluso leido hoy, sigue sorprendiendo por su sincera descripcion del amor y el sexo. |
Contributor Bio(s): Neruda, Pablo: - Pablo Neruda (1904-1973) was born in the town of Parral in Chile. He received numerous prestigious awards for his work, including the International Peace Prize in 1950 and the Lenin Peace Prize in 1953. In 1971 he won the Nobel Prize for Literature. Two years later he died in Santiago, Chile, probably a victim of the Pinochet government. Pinochet denied permission for Neruda's funeral to be made a public event. Thousands of grieving Chileans disobeyed the curfew, however, and crowded the streets of Santiago. |
