Luis Sepúlveda Calfucura ( Spanish pronunciation: [ˈlwis seˈpulβeða kalfuˈkuɾa]; October 4, 1949 – April 16, 2020) was a Chilean writer and journalist. A communist militant and fervent opponent of Augusto Pinochet's regime, he was imprisoned and tortured by the military dictatorship during the 1970s. Sepúlveda authored numerous poetry books and short stories; in addition to Spanish, his mother tongue, he also spoke English, the language in which he wrote his first novel, El viejo que leía novelas de amor (The Old Man Who Read Love Stories).
