As a child, she watched her mother, abandoned by her husband, provide for her three small children without “resources or voice.” Isabel became a fierce and defiant little girl, determined to fight for the life her mother couldn’t have. As a young woman coming of age in the late 1960s, she rode the second wave of feminism. Among a tribe of like-minded female journalists, Allende for the first time felt comfortable in her own skin, as they wrote “with a knife between our teeth” about women’s issues. She has seen what the movement has accomplished in the course of her lifetime. And over the course of three passionate marriages, she has learned how to grow as a woman while having a partner, when to step away, and the rewards of embracing one’s sexuality. So what feeds the soul of feminists—and all women—today? To be safe, to be valued, to live in peace, to have their own resources, to be connected, to have control over our bodies and lives, and above all, to be loved. On all these fronts, there is much work yet to be done, and this book, Allende hopes, will “light the torches of our daughters and granddaughters with mine. They will have to live for us, as we lived for our mothers, and carry on with the work still left to be finished.”]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1341300</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1341300</guid><category><![CDATA[AB]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Allende, Isabel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1341300086</comments><format>AB</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593400463/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[A Long Petal of the Sea]]></title><description><![CDATA[From the  New York Times  bestselling author of  The House of the Spirits,  this epic novel spanning decades and crossing continents follows two young people as they flee the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War in search of a place to call home.   In the late 1930s, civil war grips Spain. When General Franco and his Fascists succeed in overthrowing the government, hundreds of thousands are forced to flee in a treacherous journey over the mountains to the French border. Among them is Roser, a pregnant young widow, who finds her life intertwined with that of Victor Dalmau, an army doctor and the brother of her deceased love. In order to survive, the two must unite in a marriage neither of them desires.  Together with two thousand other refugees, they embark on the SS  Winnipeg , a ship chartered by the poet Pablo Neruda, to Chile: "the long petal of sea and wine and snow." As unlikely partners, they embrace exile as the rest of Europe erupts in world war. Starting over on a new continent, their trials are just beginning, and over the course of their lives, they will face trial after trial. But they will also find joy as they patiently await the day when they will be exiles no more. Through it all, their hope of returning to Spain keeps them going. Destined to witness the battle between freedom and repression as it plays out across the world, Roser and Victor will find that home might have been closer than they thought all along.  A masterful work of historical fiction about hope, exile, and belonging,  A Long Petal of the Sea  shows Isabel Allende at the height of her powers.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1298923</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1298923</guid><category><![CDATA[AB]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Allende, Isabel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1298923086</comments><format>AB</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593167984/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Paula]]></title><description><![CDATA[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.

Unnoticed by those around them, a tender love affair begins to blossom. Following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the two are cruelly pulled apart as Ichimei and his family-like thousands of other Japanese Americans-are declared enemies and forcibly relocated to internment camps run by the United States government. Throughout their lifetimes, Alma and Ichimei reunite again and again, but theirs is a love that they are forever forced to hide from the world.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1147881</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1147881</guid><category><![CDATA[LPRINT]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Allende, Isabel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2015 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1147881086</comments><format>LPRINT</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781410483775/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Ripper]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Jackson women, Indiana and Amanda, have always had each other.

A pesar de la fuerza del vínculo que las une, madre e hija son como la noche del día. Indiana es una atractiva bohemia de espíritu libre, sanadora especialista en Reiki y aromaterapia, y pese a llevar tiempo separada, sigue reacia a comprometerse con alguno de los hombres que la desean: ya sea Alan, el rico vástago de una de las familias miás importantes de San Francisco, o Ryan, un enigmático y traumatizado Navy SEAL. Si Indiana suele buscar el lado bueno de las personas, Amanda, siempre fascinada por el lado oscuro, tiende a ser más como su padre, inspector de policía. Brillante e introvertida, esta estudiante del último año de instituto anda siempre con una novela negra bajo el brazo al tiempo que lidera Ripper, un juego de rol que comparte con su abuelo y con amigos de todo el mundo. Sin embargo, todo se convulsionará cuando, tal como predijo la astróloga más reputada de San Francisco, una oleada de crímenes sacuda la ciudad. Amanda, con la ayuda inestimable de su abuelo y de todos los miembros del juego de Ripper, ejercerá de maestra de ceremonias para ayudar en la investigación de los asesinatos. El caso tomariá un cariz inesperado cuando Indiana sea secuestrada. Con la vida de su madre en vilo, Amanda deberá resolver, antes de que sea demasiado tarde, el misterio más complejo de su vida por medio de su juego.]]></description><link>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1077793</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S86C1077793</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[spa]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Allende, Isabel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://greenwichlibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1077793086</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>[una novela]</subtitle><language>spa</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780804171656/MC.GIF&amp;client=greenwich&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[El juego de ripper]]></title><description><![CDATA[Tal como predijo la astróloga más reputada de San Francisco, una  oleada de crímenes comienza a sacudir la ciudad.
