“What actually happened isn’t what matters, only the resulting scars and distinguishing marks. My past has little meaning; I can see no order to it, no clarity, purpose, or path, only a blind journey guided by instinct and detours caused by events beyond my control. There was no deliberation on my part, only good intentions and the faint sense of a greater design determining my steps.”
– Isabel Allende, Paula
 
Allende wrote this memoir for her daughter Paula when she became gravely ill and fell into a coma. In typical Allende fashion, it is a work that accepts the magical and spiritual worlds, and is vibrant with strange lands, bizarre ancestors and rich memories.

This 2-week Delve will take place online via Zoom. Participants will receive information about how to connect with Zoom online.
