PLOT SUMMARY
The story takes place in a small picturesque island in the south of Italy. It depicts the unusual relationship between Mario and the poet Pablo Neruda. Mario is the son of a fisherman but despises that life. Although poorly educated, after meeting Pablo Neruda, Mario learns to love poetry and the two become friends. Mario falls in love and struggles to express himself more fully. Neruda helps the shy and clumsy Mario to win the heart of Beatrice by showing him the beauty and power of poetry.
