Industry Reviews
"Dazzling as a kaleidoscope: an artful tumbling and knocking that throws light and reveals strange depths."
Kirkus Reviews (04/01/2003)

"MY IMAGINARY COUNTRY is full of holes that can be filled only by consulting the pertinent passages from Allende's earlier novels and memoirs. This can make frustrating reading for those who don't have her entire oeuvre in their heads or at their fingertips....The book's random nature is reinforced by her casual, chatty tone, which is always charming and entertaining....Her observations about how her initial estrangement and later exile from Chile have come to form her and influence her writing are interesting and sensitively expressed....[A]n enticing yet frustrating book that will send many readers back to the source (or the sources)--her novels."
New York Times Book Review - Peter Cameron (06/08/2003)
