The Soul Of A Woman is a non-fiction book by Isabelle Allende. I am a fan of both her fiction and non-fiction writing. This is a shorter book about her feminism. She claims to have become a feminist in kindergarten when living in Chile and watching her mother struggle to raise 3 children on her own after being abandoned by her husband. Chile had an abundance of "machismo" attitude and Isabelle wasn't having any of it. I enjoyed her book in part because I agreed with 98% of what she says.
