The Gabriela Mistral Foundation, Inc. announces the publication of a special -side-by-side- bilingual edition in commemoration of the 70th anniversary of Gabriela Mistral’s Nobel Prize in Literature--the first Latin American and to date the only Latin American woman to have received this award. A milestone for Chile, the Americas and the world.

 

The book,  “From Chile to the World: 70 years of Mistral’s Nobel Prize” - “De Chile al Mundo: 70 años del Premio Nobel de Mistral,” edited by Marjorie Agosin and Gloria Garafulich-Grabois, includes 480 pages of biographical and archival information; poems; prose; special contributions; photographs and references. The book, a not-for-profit  publication to benefit the projects and programmes of the Gabriela Mistral Foundation, Inc., celebrates and highlights Mistral’s literary humanitarian work as well as the impact her writings and her thought had and continues to have in the world. This project has been possible with the generous support of the Elqui Valley Foundation.
