Robert Payne was a prolific biographer and historian, best known for his The Splendor of Greece. This work captures Israel in a specific historical moment (1963)prior to the Six-Day War of 1967, offering a view of the country's borders and atmosphere during its developmental teenage years. The provenance of this copy elevates it above a standard travelogue. Ben Raeburn (Horizon Press) was a central figure in mid-century publishing, most famous for being Frank Lloyd Wright's publisher and friend. An affectionate inscription between Payne and Raeburn represents a connection between two heavyweights of the New York literary world.

This edition presents the original Spanish text and Ben Belitt's translation on facing pages. There is an introduction by Mr. Belitt. Mr. Neruda, who was recently awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, has written, in addition to his Foreword to the play, an essay "Why Joaquin Murieta?"' (Quote taken from the back flap of the dustwrapper). ***'Ricardo Eliécer Neftalí Reyes Basoalto (12 Jul 1904 - 23 Sep 1973), better known by his pen name and, later, legal name Pablo Neruda, was a Chilean poet-diplomat and politician who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971. Neruda became known as a poet when he was 13 years old, and wrote in a variety of styles, including surrealist poems, historical epics, overtly political manifestos, a prose autobiography, and passionate love poems such as the ones in his collection "Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair (1924). Neruda occupied many diplomatic positions in various countries during his lifetime and served a term as a Senator for the Chilean Communist Party. When President Gabriel González Videla outlawed communism in Chile in 1948, a warrant was issued for Neruda's arrest. Friends hid him for months in the basement of a house in the port city of Valparaíso, and in 1949 he escaped through a mountain pass near Maihue Lake into Argentina; he would not return to Chile for more than three years. He was a close advisor to Chile's socialist President Salvador Allende, and, when he got back to Chile after accepting his Nobel Prize in Stockholm, Allende invited him to read at the Estadio Nacional before 70,000 people. Neruda was hospitalized with cancer in September 1973, at the time of the coup d'état led by Augusto Pinochet that overthrew Allende's government, but returned home after a few days when he suspected a doctor of injecting him with an unknown substance for the purpose of murdering him on Pinochet's orders. Neruda died at his home in Isla Negra on 23 September 1973, just hours after leaving the hospital. Although it was long reported that he died of heart failure, the Interior Ministry of the Chilean government issued a statement in 2015 acknowledging a Ministry document indicating the government's official position that "it was clearly possible and highly likely" that Neruda was killed as a result of "the intervention of third parties". However, an international forensic test conducted in 2013 rejected allegations that he was poisoned. It was concluded that he had been suffering from prostate cancer."'
