«Canto general» is the poetry collection by Pablo Neruda, published by Bruguera in paperback (436 pages, in Spanish).
A broad poetry collection conceived as a tribute to Chile and extended to the whole American continent. It includes notable poems such as «Alturas de Macchu Picchu» and «El gran océano», and traverses the nature, history and struggles of America. Neruda's voice unites political denunciation, collective memory and personal experience.
This work, Neruda's tenth poetry collection, was originally published in 1950; the Bruguera edition belongs to the Libro Amigo collection.
A reference work for readers of Hispanic American poetry and for those interested in twentieth-century Chilean literature.
Pablo Neruda was a Chilean poet-diplomat and politician who won the 1971 Nobel Prize in Literature.
