«Mi país inventado» is a memoir by Isabel Allende, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (216 pages, in Spanish).
In this memoir, Isabel Allende reconstructs her ties to Chile and interweaves them with her later life in the United States. The narrative reflects on memory, nostalgia, and exile after the 1973 military coup, and on how uprootedness leads to creating a personal space, sustained by recollection, that does not depend on real geography.
Work originally published in 2003; this Círculo de Lectores edition, from January 2004, belongs to the Areté collection and includes a dust jacket.
For readers of memoirs and Latin American literature interested in experiences of exile, identity, and memory.
