| book description |

El Premio Nobel de Literatura Pablo Neruda nos ofrece una colecciÃ³n de poemas bellamente ilustrados sobre la musa natural del cÃ©lebre poeta: el mar. Para muchos, el mar es una de esas maravillas naturales que inspiran asombro, temor, maravilla, paz e incluso amor. El mar era la vida de Neruda, nunca se alejÃ³ mucho de Ã©l. Sus Ãºltimos dÃas los viviÃ³ en su casa en Isla Negra, de la que tanto se ha escrito. LlegÃ³ a considerar los ritmos poderosos del mar y su extraordinaria fuerza como manantial personal de sus arrebatos artÃsticos y fuente no solo de vida, sino de creatividad. Aunque abundan las recopilaciones de obras de Neruda, En la orilla azul del silencio es la primera que reÃºne sus poemas sobre el mar. Con una magnÃfica traducciÃ³n del reconcido Alistair Reid e impresionantes pinturas de una artista que viajÃ³ a Isla Negra para tambiÃ©n poder recibir tambiÃ©n la inspiraciÃ³n que Neruda tuvo al escribir sus poemas. En la orilla azul del silencio serÃ¡ recordado como una piedra angular de la obra de Neruda, que encarna tanto al poeta como al artista y al lector que fue. ----- From Nobel prize-winning author Pablo Neruda comes a beautifully illustrated collection of poems on the celebrated author's natural muse, the sea. The sea, for many, is one of those natural marvels which inspire awe, fear, wonder, peace, and even love. For Pablo Neruda, the sea was his life, never having veered very far from it. Living out his last days on his much written about home on Isla Negra (Black Island) Neruda came to view the sea, its powerful rhythms and marvelous power, as the source of not only life, but creativity and a personal wellspring for his artistic leaps. Although collections of Neruda's works abound, On the Blue Shore of Silence is the first to bring together his poems on the sea. With a wonderful translation from the famed Alistair Reid and stunning paintings from an artist who traveled to Isla Negra so that she too could capture the inspiration Neruda did when he wrote his poems, On the Blue Shore of Silence will be remembered as a cornerstone of Neruda's body of work, embodying both the poet, artist, and reader that he was.
