«Herinnering aan mijn Chili» is Isabel Allende's memoir about Chile, published by Wereldbibliotheek in hardback (191 pages, in Dutch).
Isabel Allende recalls from exile her connection with Chile and reconstructs the country through family anecdotes, youthful memories, and observations on its history and inhabitants. The book combines personal chronicle with the portrait of a nation that no longer matches the image Isabel Allende keeps of her homeland.
Dutch translation by Alfred Engelander of the original «Mi país inventado», published in 2003.
For those interested in memoirs, Latin American literature, and Chile's recent history.
