FILE - This Feb. 14, 1952 file photo shows Chilean poet Pablo Neruda in Capri, Italy. Forty years after his death, Pablo Neruda once again was writing and reciting love poems and he walked through Santiago's streets to the admiring gazes of Chileans - virtually, that is. The Nobel Prize-winning poet was briefly visible Friday, July 11, 2014 writing verses in the window of his former home in Santiago, which is now a museum. Then his projected figure set off, traveling across the facades of buildings and homes as he appeared to slowly stroll the capital's streets like he used to do when he was alive. (AP Photo/File)
