The book circles around two life-changing moments. The assassination of her uncle Salvador Allende Gossens on September 11, 1973, sent her into exile and transformed her into a literary writer. And the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, on her adopted homeland, the United States, brought forth an overdue acknowledgment that Allende had indeed left home. My Invented Country, mimicking the workings of memory itself, ranges back and forth across that distance between past and present lives. It speaks compellingly to immigrants and to all of us who try to retain a coherent inner life in a world full of contradictions. 000338258 60010 $$aAllende, Isabel. 000338258 650_0 $$aSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001. 000338258 650_0 $$aAuthors, Chilean$$y20th century$$vBiography. 000338258 651_0 $$aChile$$xHistory$$yCoup d'état, 1973. 000338258 7001_ $$aPeden, Margaret Sayers. 000338258 85200 $$bgen$$hPQ8098.1.L54$$iZ467$$i2004 000338258 85642 $$3Publisher description$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/description/hc041/2002191267.html 000338258 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:338258$$pGLOBAL_SET 000338258 980__ $$aBIB 000338258 980__ $$aBOOK
