SPANISH LANGUAGE FIRST EDITION. PARA NACER HE NACIDO. Circulo de Lectores, Bogota, Columbia. Copyright 1978, published 1979. PABLO NERUDA. Para nacer he nacido (To Be Born). Used. Good- Condition/ No dj included. Please see stock photo for typical condition. "Pablo Neruda is one of the most influential and widely read 20th-century poets of the Americas. "No writer of world renown is perhaps so little known to North Americans as Chilean poet Pablo Neruda," observed New York Times Book Reviewcritic Selden Rodman. Numerous critics have praised Neruda as the greatest poet writing in the Spanish language during his lifetime. John Leonard in the New York Times declared that Neruda "was, I think, one of the great ones, a Whitman of the South." Among contemporary readers in the United States, he is largely remembered for his odes and love poems."

Description:
First and limited edition (2000 copies) by well know medical doctor, philosopher and historian. Text is entirely in Spanish. Seems to be a medical history using illustrations from famous works of art as well as medical sketches. Full signature and inscription by the author on the title page. The book and dj are like new. We can't speak to the text t because our Spanish is severely limited. However, the book itself is beautiful with many striking and beautiful illustrations. From Wikipedia (abridged): " Federico Ortiz Quezada (born 1935 in Mexico City) ...received his M.D. from the National University of México in 1959.

Recibió el premio periodístico Juan Gualberto Gómez en 1951. Viajó por América, Europa y Asia. A excepción de Grimpolario (1937), toda su obra es de narrador y prosista. Sus "novelas gaseiformes" (El laberinto de sí mismo, 1933, Cresival, 1936, y Anteo, 1940) se caracterizan por la angustia existencial, la búsqueda de lo inaprensible y el estilo divagatorio. Se les ha señalado el influjo surrealista, pero lo onírico que hay en ellas se entrelaza con recuerdos e ideas personales, diluidos en lo que el autor llama "un gas de novela". El reverso… Read More
