Description
In a long-awaited interview, the Chilean novelist speaks candidly, inviting us to join her on an intimate journey that began in childhood—the journey of her eventful and tumultuous life, because “a quiet, safe life is not good material for fiction.” Isabel Allende tells us about love, “which doesn’t sprout like a wild plant, but is carefully cultivated”; about life, “which slips by while one is busy making other plans”; about her experience in Lebanon and her travels around the world; about her journey as a novelist and feminist; about what it means to be a woman in a world of men. She speaks about her mother, that deeply rooted tree; about her daughter Paula, who passed away in the prime of her life; about her companions on this journey; about the women who stormed the world of men; about the women of the soul.
