Feeding on Dreams is the story of the transformative decades of exile that followed. Dorfman portrays, through visceral scenes and powerful intellect, the personal and political maelstroms underlying his migrations from Buenos Aires, on the run from Pinochet "s death squads, to safe houses in Paris and Amsterdam, and eventually to America, his childhood home. And then, seventeen years after he was forced to leave, there is a yearned-for return to Chile, with an unimaginable outcome. The toll on Dorfman "s wife and two sons, the Searthquake of language that is bilingualism, and his eventual questioning of his allegiance to past and party ?all these crucibles of a life in exile are revealed with wry and startling honesty. 600 10 $a Dorfman, Ariel. 650 0 $a Authors, Chilean $y 20th century $v Biography. 650 0 $a Authors, Exiled $z United States $v Biography. 941 $a 5 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722031936.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180127055106.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825035356.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20160331011556.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20150507014521.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=145B966CFBAA11E0A8A306C86AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b IW9Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
