Marjorie Agosín - Of Earth and Sea: A Chilean Memoir

The Chilean coup d'état of 1973 was a watershed event in the history of Chile. It was also a defining moment in the life of writer Marjorie Agosín. In Of Earth and Sea, she draws upon her experiences as a child in Chile, an expatriate abroad, and a minority Jew—even in the land she calls home—to create a striking portrait of a life of exile.

Agosín is a professor of Spanish at Wellesley College.  Her appearance is co-sponsored by the Latino Writers Collective as part of the Library's observance of Hispanic Heritage Month.

The book will be available for sale.
