"Naci en medio de la humareda y mortandad de la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la mayor parte de mi juventud transcurrio esperando que el planeta volara en pedazos cuando alguien apretara distraidamente un boton y se dispararan las bombas atomicas. Nadie esperaba vivir muy largo; andabamos apurados tragandonos cada momento antes que nos sorprendiera el apocalipsis, de modo que no habia tiempo para examinar el propio ombligo y tomar notas, como se usa ahora. Ademas creci en Santiago de Chile, donde cualquier tendencia natural hacia la auto-contemplacion es cercenada en capullo..." De este modo Isabel Allende comienza su libro. En el nos hace una comprometida descripcion del pais en el que crecio y se crio bajo el cuidado y proteccion de su madre y de su abuelo materno. A traves de estas paginas nos cuenta como fue su infancia, en donde encontramos las raices de su vocacion de escritora y las fuentes de todas sus historias y maravillosos personajes. A su vez, nos conduce a traves de las costumbres y creencias de nuestro pais vecino. De una manera critica pero conmovedora. Para sus asiduos lectores este libro puede ser un lugar donde encontrar aquellos nombres y personajes que guiaron toda su narrativa y para los latinoamericanos es un espejo que nos identifica a partir de su aguda mirada sobre sucesos que nos han marcado a todos, como la dictadura militar. Un libro imperdible para todos los amantes de su prosa, reflejada aqui mas que nunca.
