Pablo Neruda wrote the poems in Los versos del capitįn as a celebration of his love for his third wife, Matilde Urrutia a love affair that is itself celebrated in the acclaimed film Il Postino. Originally published anonymously in 1952 to spare his second wifes feelings, this bilingual edition is the books first publication in Britain. Brian Coles translations display all the qualities of vivid imagery, sensuousness, simplicity and passion for which Nerudas poetry is famous.
Pablo Neruda (190473) was born in Parral, Chile. He published his first book of poems in Santiago in 1921. From 1927 to 1945 he served as Chilean consul in Rangoon, Java and Barcelona. Much influenced by events in the Spanish Civil War, he joined the Communist Party after World War Two. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971, while serving as Chilean ambassador to Paris. He died shortly after the coup in Chile which ousted Salvador Allende in 1973.
