Summary: Yevtushenko´s tale in verse is set in Chile during Allende´s short-lived presidency. A Dove in Santiago is the story of an idealistic young art student, Enrique. Tormented by conflicting pressures--from his divorced parents, from jealous lovers, jealous art teachers, and political extremists of both left and right--he commits suicide by jumping from a hotel roof. The movingly narrated true story of Enrique becomes emblematic of the lives of all decent men striving to remain human in a world tragically divided.
