Isabel Allende’s home library holds what matters most “If there’s a mess, I can’t work,” the Chilean author said of her neat offices and home, where her most treasured memento is correspondence with her mother.

A wonderful article about my favorite author in a format that's just lovely. I'm glad I happened to read it on my laptop instead of my phone. wapo.st/3YFxSGC

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
