Book synopsis

Although everything in this imaginative and compelling biography of the martyred Chilean President Salvador Allende is solidly based on fact, it is cast in the form of a novel by the author, who was a close friend and longtime colleague of Allende. 'It is less a novel than a stirring national epic for a land so long at the mercy of outsiders, without proprietary rights over its history. Alegria recaptures it for Chile. Allende's story as told by Alegria is exciting and often inspiring.'
