Tonight’s Read: Isabel Allende’s Paula - HarperCollins, 1994.
Paula is a soul bearing memoir that seizes the reader like a novel of suspense. When Isabel Allende’s daughter, Paula, became gravely ill and fell into a coma, the author began to write the story of her family for her unconscious child. In the telling, bizarre ancestors appear before our eyes; we hear both delightful and bitter childhood memories, amazing anecdotes of youthful years, the most intimate secrets passed along in whispers. With Paula, Allende has written a powerful autobiography whose straightforward acceptance of the magical and spiritual world will remind readers of her first book, the House of the Spirits.
