Amor

Isabel Allende is always very dear to me. I feel like she's one of those people with whom you can have endless cups of coffee over a great view and never run out of topics to discuss, questions to ask, things to say. She says that actually she makes up all her stories and the love scenes are not based on her life; when they are autobiographic, she says so. STill, if you read all her books, and I think I have read almost all of them, as time goes by her voice starts to sound familiar and it is difficult to think she is not just telling her own story through all those voices.
Amor is actually a selection of love excerpts from her books, based on jealousy, mature love, first love and so on. You revisit some of the characters and want to reread everything. Life is too short for all the books I want to read plus the ones I would love to reread, that is all I want to say...
