Isabel Allende Speaks

Latin American writer, Isabel Allende, talks about, women, passion, and feminism. This link was sent by a most insightful writer, Chichi Lizot, whose life as an expat all across the globe has enriched her perceptions of people and what moves them, of the world and why it figuratively spins on an axis. These have translated into her writing, which is honest and soulful so that the reader readily agrees to be taken deep into the world of her characters. She uses a language that is at once Filipino and foreign. Thanks, Chi.

Enjoy Allende's speech. Friend and gifted writer, Popi, says she kinda looks like Paula Abdul and I'll have to agree.
