A Finalistfor the PEN/Bograd Weld Prize for BiographyThe most definitive biography to date of the poet Pablo Neruda, a moving portrait of one of the most intriguing and influential figures in Latin American historyFew poets have captured the global imagination like Pablo Neruda. In his native Chile, across Latin America, and in many other parts of the world, his name and legacy have become almost synonymous with liberation movements, and with the language of erotic love. Neruda: The Poets Calling is the product of fifteen years of research by Mark Eisner, writer, translator, and documentary filmmaker. The book vividly depicts Nerudas monumental life, potent verse, and ardent belief in the poets obligation to use poetry for social good. It braids together three major strands of Nerudas lifehis world-revered poetry; his political engagement; and his tumultuous, even controversial, personal lifeforming a single cohesive narrative of intimacy and breadth.The fascinating events of Nerudas life are interspersed with Eisners thoughtful examinations of the poems, both as works of art in their own right and as mirrors of Nerudas life and times. The result is a book that animates Nerudas riveting story in a new wayone that offers a compelling narrative version of Nerudas life and work, undergirded by exhaustive research, yet designed to bring this colossal literary figure to a broader audience.
