Biography & Autobiography. Sociology. Nonfiction. HTML:From the New York Times bestselling author of A Long Petal of the Sea comes ??a bold exploration of womanhood, feminism, parenting, aging, love and more? (Associated Press).
??The Soul of a Woman is Isabel Allende??s most liberating book yet.???Elle

??When I say that I was a feminist in kindergarten, I am not exaggerating,? begins Isabel Allende. 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

Isabelle Allende tells the story of her life. I did not care for this book. ( )

Muy interesante y fácil de leer para un estudiante intermedio. Una combinación intrigante de idealismo y egoísmo saludablemente obstinado. ( )

Isabel Allende bucea en su memoria y nos ofrece un emocionante libro sobre su relación con el feminismo y el hecho de ser mujer, al tiempo que reivindica que la vida adulta hay que vivirla, sentirla y gozarla con plena intensidad. En Mujeres del alma mía la gran autora chilena nos invita a acompañarla en este viaje personal y emocional donde repasa su vinculación con el feminismo desde la infancia hasta hoy. Recuerda a algunas mujeres imprescindibles en su vida, como sus añoradas Panchita, Paula o la agente Carmen Balcells; a escritoras relevantes como Virginia Woolf o Margaret Atwood; a jóvenes artistas que aglutinan la rebeldía de su generación o, entre otras muchas, a esas mujeres anónimas que han sufrido la violencia y que llenas de dignidad y coraje se levantan y avanzan... Ellas son las que tanto le inspiran y tanto le han acompañado a lo largo de su vida: sus mujeres del alma. Finalmente, reflexiona también sobre el movimiento #MeToo -que apoya y celebra-, sobre las recientes revueltas sociales en su país de origen y, cómo no, sobre la nueva situación que globalmente estamos viviendo con la pandemia. Todo ello sin perder esa inconfundible pasión por la vida y por insistir en que, más allá de la edad, siempre hay tiempo para el amor.
