Paula (Harper Collins)
How can writing provide consolation? Writer Isabel Allende talks about her daughter's death and the progression of events and feelings that led to the publication of this memoir. This conversation about writing as consolation has received so much response from listeners over the years that we felt it deserved a second airing. (This conversation, originally broadcast on June 5, 1995, will not be heard live on KCRW, as it will be pre-empted by our subscription drive.)
