520 |a Isabel Allende is considered Latin America's most acclaimed woman writer--a status she has archived by imbuing her work with a mixture of history and fiction that both educates and entertains readers. In this book, Levine examines Allende's success in uniting quality writing with mass appeal. She looks at Allende's use of a feminist agenda, her ability to combine genres as varied as the adventure story and the romance novel, and the important roles historical data and sociological insights play in framing her narratives. While most scholarship on Allende focuses on her early novels, Levin's study touches on the full catalog of Allende's work. Supplementing the text are an interview with Allende, a preface, chronology, notes and references, selected bibliography, and index.
