The soul of
Isabel Allende. On the one hand, her life, her precocious feminism that started at the age of six, her family, her parents, her children, her husbands, her friends, and her career as a woman writer in Chile. On the other hand, general facts about feminism, the status of women, and the behaviour of men towards women. Although at one point in the narrative, Allende notes that this book is not “a scholarly lecture, but an informal conversation”, there are many collated facts and data that would have been nice to accompany by references. It feels a bit like cookie-cutter sentences without context. But I admire that she can sit down and write these thoughts at nearly eighty years old. A nice book to finish on International Women's Day.
