Neruda ship

In 1939, Pablo Neruda prepared for the voyage of the ship Winnipeg; it is the legendary ship that sailed from France to Chile carrying two thousand Spanish refugees who had fled from Franco's oppressive regime. And based on this historical event that Neruda would remember as "his most beautiful poem," Isabel Allende narrates the enchanting story of a pregnant piano player and a doctor forced to leave besieged Barcelona at that time, both dreaming of a second chance in exile. Isabel Allende, at the height of her literary power, speaks to us about hope, belonging, and love in long-term exile… "She has here everything needed: the ear, the eye, the mind, the heart, and a universal humanity that excludes no one."
