"Important
developments in the recent 24 hours regarding Nobel Prize for Literature winner
and immensely influential Chilean poet, Pablo Neruda . As a left-wing advocate - his
sympathies and views made him a long term exile from his native country and,
upon his return to Chile, one of its leading political lights (under the
Allende government he was a promiment diplomat, for instance), Neruda's death
is being reinvestigated - along with many - and his body exhumed. Rumours swirl
that this exhumation is part of an investigation into whether forces close to
General Pinochet were involved in the death of Pinochet. Perhaps one of the
best articles on these recent developments can be found at the BBC" :
