Isabel Allende

Isabel Allende

Isabel Allende
If you change the way you tell your own story, you can change the colour and create a life in technicolour.
Isabel Allende
The fact people think that when you sell a lot of books you are not a serious writer is a great insult to the readership. I get a little angry when people try to say such a thing.
Isabel Allende
The first lie of fiction is that the author gives some order to the chaos of life: chronological order, or whatever order the author chooses.
Isabel Allende
