Isabel Allende: The Wind Knows My Name

The most vivid image of his past was that last desperate embrace. That was the day his childhood ended.
Join New York Times-bestselling author Isabel Allende (A Long Petal of the Sea, The House of the Spirits) for a reading from and discussion of her new novel, The Wind Knows My Name, which weaves together past and present to trace the effects of war and immigration on one child in Europe in 1938 and another in the United States in 2019.
Interviewing Allende onstage is Alicia Menendez, MSNBC Anchor and Latina to Latina Podcast Host.
“Allende reminds us to believe in words, words of love and witness,” wrote Luis Alberto Urrea. “She speaks of human hope, survival, connection, wonder, tragedy, and joy against all odds.”

I love this woman! An amazing interview, I have seen this more than twice. Isabel Allende is an Icon, such an interesting conversation. I hope to be like her when I'm 80

My favorite writer. She is so funny and smart.Could listen to her all day. Every time I meet someone from Chile my first question is "Do you know Isabel Allende?"

Years ago I saw a photo of her, in a bath tub, with I think it was her young grandchildren and possibly some other very young relative. Who does that ??? What adult gets into a bath tub, with very young kids but old enough to sit up by themselves ? And no, she wasn’t wearing a bathing suit. It was disturbing.

[@estheraguirre3807]

That's definitely not appropriate, why would her children allow her grandchildren into the bath tub with them? Children need to be protected by their own parents !!
