About the book

"The Chilean coup d'etat of 1973 was a watershed event in the history of Chile. It was also a defining moment in the life of writer Marjorie Agosin. This collection of prose vignettes and free verse 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. Combining themes of memory, childhood, minority issues, Judaism, and political oppression, this collection contains some of Agosin's strongest work. Of Earth and Sea is a poetic autobiography that explores the world of Chile with eyes that see both despair and hope."--Jacket.
