Today in Literary History

More Literary History

Discover the significance of today's date in the world of literature.

Chilean poet Pablo Neruda died in the hospital after suffering from prostate cancer. Only two years earlier, Neruda had been awarded the Nobel Prize, however, his diagnosis and political involvement made life increasingly hard to live. He was reported to have called his wife from the hospital only hours before he died. He complained that “they were giving him something that didn’t feel good,” and rumors circulated later that he may not have died of natural causes. To this day, an investigation into Neruda’s death is ongoing, as it was recently discovered that he actually died of a staph infection, which could have possibly been given through an injection from someone who wanted him dead.

Member Testimonials

Hear what our members have to say about their experience with Sahityika.

Ayush Raj

Sahityika has been a warm and inspiring space, full of creativity, connection, and growth. It's where I found not just a platform for expression, but a family of like-minded, supportive individuals.

Sreevidya

Sahityika is a sanctuary—a sanctuary where creativity overflows. It has taught me so many things. It’s now become like home, full of fun and friends. I don’t know how words could ever capture the beauty of this place.

Prasidha Jayaramakrishnan

Being a part of group of highly knowledgeable people who share my love for literature has been a liberating journey. Even though I am occasionally active in the group through messages, I tend to stay in track with the happenings of the group. From what I've seen, Sahityika feels to me like a group of non-judgmental people who bring to the table a lot of different views on the world. I've learnt a lot from this place.

Vian Khemka

Raajameenakshi's leadership. Satyaki's Poems. Shambhavi's events. Sejal's scripts. And the entire team's enthusiasm and participation, it wins all our hearts. Sahityika is a warm, welcoming space which brings out the writer in us, brings out emotions and provides a space for us to connect better as people, unfiltered, unjudged, real.
