Ann Wroe, Daily Telegraph
‘This is a good, thorough, committed biography, sprinkled with plenty of well-translated poetry … Some scenes are extraordinary’

Hugh Macdonald, Glasgow Herald
‘Neruda lurches from the pages as a fully-formed human being, beset by defects and blessed with a capacity for living'

5.0 out of 5 stars A racy narrative, crowded with fresh detail, 12 Jul 2004
By A Customer
Not many writers lead such a colourful life as Neruda. The Chilean Nobel prize winner was not only a diplomat, a world class poet, and a lover of many women--- he had three wives and many mistresses---he was also a supporter of the Republican cause in Spain, responsible for rescuing many of Franco's enemies, and a staunch left-winger who wanted to write for the many rather than the few . . He was forced to flee for his life over the Andes on a donkey when the Chilean government became a tyranny, and was close to Allende at the time of his death. Feinstein tells the story judiciously; he honestly addresses the poet's continuing support for Communism, even after Stalin's crimes were widely known , and does not attempt to palliate his many infidelities. Whata comes through is Neruda's passion for life, and Feinstein's passion for his subject. A riveting read.
