Branching Out NYC: Martín Espada on Pablo Neruda

Oct 17, 2006 | 7:00 pm

Pablo Neruda

Among his many masterworks, Neruda wrote poems about the mysterious power of poetry itself, a power embraced by Chilean culture. This evening focuses on the evolution of Neruda as a political poet, his struggle and exile at the hands of his own government, his death in the wake of the military coup, and his redemption after democracy returned to Chile.

Location Tribeca Performing Arts Center, 199 Chambers Street Sponsored By Poets House, co-sponsored by the Poetry Society of America and the TRIBECA Performing Arts Center
