Free Downloads Spain In Our Hearts/Espana En El Corazon (New Directions Bibelots)
Neruda's epic hymn against fascism, Spain in Our Hearts, now available in this pocket Bibelot edition. In 1936, Pablo Neruda was Chile's consul in Madrid, and so horrified by the civil war and the murder of his friend, Federico Garcia Lorca, that he started writing what became his most politically passionate series of poems, Spain in Our Hearts. The collection was printed by soldiers on the front lines of the war, and later incorporated into the third volume of Neruda's revolutionary collection, Residence on Earth. This bilingual New Directions Bibelot edition presents Spain in Our Hearts as a single book as it was first published, a tribute to Neruda's everlasting spirit.

This book made my heart surge with outrage, disgust, fear, and empathy. I could hardly put it down. What struck me was that Neruda could be talking about any war, any place, any time. The fact that men passed up food & clothing to make room for this volume in their knapsacks made me pause and reflect at length on freedom and tyranny. Anyone interested in poetry, the Spanish Civil War, or Neruda would like this book.
This book captures the feelings and sufferings of Spain during the civil war. This dual-language edition is great for people like me who are beginning to learn Spanish and admire the beauty of the language.
I believe it is enough to say this was an amazing product just because of the poet Pablo Neruda. he is an amazing person as well as a friend of the infamous Picasso.
