Description
'No amount of acrobatics can out do the absolute core of Allende's talent: her gift for writing' The Times
In the wake of the tragic death of her daughter, Paula, Isabel Allende reconstructs the painful reality of her own life.
Allende bares her soul while sharing her thoughts on love, motherhood, spirituality, addiction and memory. She recounts stories of the wildly eccentric and eclectic tribe she became a part of, and how she lovingly embraced them as a new kind of family.
Told with warmth, exceptional candour and wisdom, this remarkable memoir is as exuberant and full of life as its creator.

Reviews
-
The reader is swept along by the energy of her prose, her brilliance as a story-teller, and the sheer force and warmth of personality
Independent
-
If she wrote Paula as a redemptive exercise in grieving, The Sum of Our Days is written in the spirit of thanksgiving
