Bay Area based journalist and author Isabel Allende’s books–translated into 42 languages– have resonated across cultures and countries around the world. Her forthcoming book, “The Soul of a Woman,” is a memoir of her feminism, which she embraced at a very early age as she witnessed her single mother struggle to look after three children. Isabel first appeared on Forum in 1995 and she joins Michael Krasny now, as he heads into retirement, to speak about her newest work.

Isabel Allende, author, "The Soul of a Woman"
