Gabriela Mistral, magnificent rebel
$12.000
Gabriela's image is deeply humanized. In a heartbreaking global context of war and threats—in which Mistral has emerged as a figure of pacifism—there is room to describe heart ailments and failing vision, alongside the creative writing process of what will be her posthumous book. Poem of Chile. The identities of these women are gradually revealed in the proximity of the days and in the conversation that is reconstructed as if we were listening to them in real time and not in the recollection of their fragments. The correspondence shows how Matilde self-imposed the political and cultural task of repairing the damage that distanced Mistral from Chile and of alleviating the disastrous consequences of the late awarding of the National Prize to Gabriela Mistral to facilitate her reconciliation with Chile.
