Of Earth and Sea: A Chilean Memoir

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the impact of the 1973 Chilean coup d'état, this collection reflects Marjorie Agosín's experiences as a child in Chile and her life in exile as a Jewish minority. Through prose vignettes and free verse, Agosín captures the beauty of Chile's landscape while delving into themes of exile, oppression, and personal history. The tone shifts from lyrical and intimate to poignant and angry, as she addresses the injustices of Pinochet's regime. This poetic autobiography intertwines memory, identity, and the struggle for justice.
