A complex, nuanced view of United States–Latin American politics and relations of the last forty some years." — Durham Herald-Sun"One of the most important voices coming out of South America." — Salman RushdieIn September 1973, the military took power in Chile, and Ariel Dorfman, a young leftist allied with President Allende, was forced to flee for his life. In Feeding on Dreams, Dorfman portrays, through visceral scenes and with startling honesty, the personal and political maelstroms that have defined his life since the Pinochet coup.
