The House in the Sand (Spanish Edition) [Paperback]

Pablo Neruda (Author), Dennis Maloney (Translator), Clark Zlotchew (Translator), Marjorie Agosin (Preface), Ariel Dorfman (Afterword)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 1, 2004

Few writers are as integrally bound to place as Pablo Neruda was to the landscape of Isla Negra on the Chilean coast. From his arrival there in the late 1930s to his death in 1973, Isla Negra became a text that unraveled in a series of images fundamental to an understanding of his work. Renowned documentary photographer Rogovin’s photographs were taken in Isla Negra at the suggestion of Neruda himself. The poems and photographs reveal the landscape of Isla Negra as well as the home into which Neruda put so much of himself. This volume is issued to celebrate the centennial of the Nobel Prize winning poet’s birth.
