"When did you get here?" Emilia asked him, kissing him as she had when their lips were smooth and unwrinkled. The eternal throbbing beat below her breastbone. "I never leave," said Daniel, stroking her head with its scent of mysteries. Spanning almost 50yrs, this is the story of Emilia. The vast m...

I don't even know what to say about this, because I could never write a review that would do it justice. So, these are just some thoughts I have, now that I've finished the book.I'm not familiar with Isabel Allende's fiction. I'm aware of a couple of her books, but haven't had the pleasure of readin...
My Invented Country is a different kind of memoir. Allende's personal memoir was Paula, but as it says in the title, this one is about Chile. Don't confuse it with a history of Chile either.

This was an interesting book, powerful when the language caught me but ultimately just not enough to my taste to let me sink into it and really lose myself. It is a book during which I never forgot I was reading a book, for lack of a better way to explain it. It takes the life of an American journal...
