“As long as we sing his songs, as long as his courage can inspire us to greater courage, Víctor Jara will never die.” – Pete Seeger “An intensely moving account. A love story — an epic tragedy — but written with the Jaras’ shared faith that good can yet come out of evil.” – Peggy Aschcroft “Joan Jara describes with great power and clarity the aspirations of the people of Chile and the horror which descended upon them in 1973.” – Harold Pinter Víctor Jara was a Chilean poet, singer, theatre director, and communist activist. He was tortured and killed after the coup of 11 September 1973, which overthrew the Salvador Allende government.
