In solidarity with the Spanish Republic she donated her author's rights for the book to the Spanish children displaced and orphaned by the war. In \u003cem\u003eTala \u003c\/em\u003eMistral includes the poems inspired by the death of her mother, together with a variety of other compositions that do not linger in sadness but sing of the beauty of the world and deal with the hopes and dreams of the human heart. These poems are divided into three sections: \"Materias\" (Matter), comprising verse about bread, salt, water, air; \"Tierra de Chile\" (Land of Chile), and \"America.\" Particularly important in this last group are two American hymns: \"Sol del trópico\" (Tropical Sun) and \"Cordillera\" (Mountain Range). These poems exemplify Mistral's interest in awakening in her contemporaries a love for the essences of their American identity.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093555433631,"sku":"14587","price":1600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Mistral_2C_Gabriela_Tala_SIGNED_14587a.jpg?v=1722188812","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/products\/14587-mistral-gabriela-nobel-winner-tala-signed-and-inscribed-to-jose-galvez-barrenechea","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
