En person som fastnat i den fina, positiva delen av mitt minne:
Isabel Allende, bilden (born August 2, 1942, Lima, Peru), Chilean American writer in the magic realist tradition who is considered one of the first successful woman novelists from Latin America.
Allende was born in Peru to Chilean parents. She worked as a journalist in Chile until she was forced to flee to Venezuela after the assassination (1973) of her uncle, Chilean Pres. Salvador Allende.
En mycket trevlig person som jag under Bokmässan i Göteborg (minns ej året) fick förmånen att prata mycket med henne (vars pappa var kusin till president Allende som mördades 1973 [ett mord som iscensattes av gangstern Pinochet]).
PS Såg nu att hennes Bokmässebesök i Göteborg var år 2009.
Isabel Allendes mest berömda bok: "Andarnas hus" |
