PABLO NERUDA: A PASSION FOR LIFE

Book ID/图书代码： 02000004B08610

English Summary/英文概要： More than 30 years after the death of the Nobel Prize-winning Chilean poet, millions around the globe continue to woo their lovers with lines from his Twenty Love Poems and A Song of Despair. Millions more have been enchanted by the emotional directness of the Elemental Odes, the epic power of the Canto General and the dazzling lyricism of his later love poetry. Neruda was a complicated man, both politically and emotionally. There were three marraiges and many love affairs - and Feinstein draws on interviews with the poet’s closest friends, acquaintances and surviving relatives, as well as newly discovered documents, to explore those complexities. He follows Neruda’s development from a sickly, sensitive child in southern Chile in the early years of the century to a writer of growing fame whose political sympathies led to friendship with Federico Garcia Lorca and active support for the Republican cause during the Spanish Civil War. Then came a year in hiding from Chile’s dictator, under threat of death, before a dramatic escape to exile, and through it all his controversial loyalty to Stalinism even after Stalin’s crimes had been exposed.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 诺贝尔获奖者智利诗人PABLO NERUDA死后的三十多年后,全世界数以百万他的支持者聚首在一起纪念他.这些人沉醉于他以直白的感情表达为主的四行讼诗,具有巨大影响力的史诗作品《Canto General》，以及在他后半生所创作的动人的爱情抒情诗歌。无论是NERUDA的政治生涯，还是感情生活，都充满了复杂的纠葛，让人难以理解。他有过三次婚姻，和数不清的风流韵事——作者Feinstein为了摸透他复杂的一生，对这位伟大诗人的好朋友、熟人和家属分别进行了采访，并参考了许多新发现的各类证据。作者从早年生活在智利南部多病、敏感的小男孩Neruda描写到他如何成为日渐成名的大作家，以及他的政治情怀是如何造就了他与Federico Garcia Lorca之间的深厚友谊，和在西班牙内战时强烈的支持共和党。以及为了躲避当时智利的独裁者，在面对死亡的威胁下，在被流放前曲折坎坷的逃亡之路，以及在世人唾弃斯大林时，他那具有争议性对史达林主义的忠诚之心。(COCO)
