”It is not a biography, it's a novel,” stresses Manns in reference to the fictional license he took in creating a portrait of Emile Dubois, a French immigrant described as ”a charismatic and passionate person who seduced men and women to turn himself into a truly legendary character.”
Manns began his work in literature in 1967 with ”De noche sobre el rastro”, which received the Alerce writers society prize at a time when he was a composer and musician famed for his song ”Arriba en la cordillera” (Up in the Mountains), one of the best known folk songs in the Spanish-speaking world.
In late 2001, Manns won Chile's most prestigious literary award, the National Book Council Prize, for a series of unpublished stories under the title ”La tumba del zambullidor” (The tomb of the diver).

 CHILE: "NEW" SONG MOVEMENT REVISITED
There are, of course, many more musicians in Chile who have dedicated their talent to composing songs that talk about the people's struggle to change a social order based on capitalist exploitation of labor.
Patricio Manns, Rolando Alarcon, Charo Jofre, Payo Grondona, Tito Fernandez, Quelentaro, Hector Pavez, Isabel and Angel Parra, the group Illapu, are a few names that come to mind, in addition to those more renowned internationally.
They are all part of what those who decide to catalog and label history have designated under the euphemistic name of "Nueva Cancion" or New Song movement.

Patricio Manns en Chile - ezfolk.com Media Store
Even if you could just get Cuando Me Acuerdo de Mi Pais (When I Remember My Country), the CD would be worth the price easily.
Its melody will stay with you forever as will Pato Manns' sense of love for Chile which is so different from the jingoism we are often sold as patriotism here in the U.S. But you'll get many other wonderful songs, including one of Victor Jara's best loved songs, Te Recuerdo Amanda.

El Inti que aprovecho las letras de Patricio Manns, el bolero, como la canci�n rom�ntica y apasionada, pero a la vez triste y dolorosa como lo es misma historia de am�rica latina, la tan bella, la tan llorada.
Inti, que integra a Efren Viera, un cubano que da percusi�n y vientos con sonoridad nueva al Inti, sacando la internacionalidad del grupo al ser integrantes chilenos y cubanos.
The arrangements are elegant and powerful, the melodies are beautiful and stay pleasantly with you, and the lyrics are nothing short of superb, with Patricio Manns providing poetry of love (medianoche, quien eres tu, for example) and subtle protest (el hacha, for example, is about deforestation), skillfully avoiding being corny or plain propaganda.
