Chile: The Other September 11: An Anthology of Reflections on the 1973 Coup. Ariel Dorfman

This anthology reclaims the date of September 11 as the anniversary of the U.S.-backed coup in Chile in 1973 by General Augusto Pinochet against the popularly elected Allende government. Contrib­utors include Ariel Dorfman, Pablo Neruda, Salvador Allende, Fidel Castro.

“A fast and powerful read, and its themes are still relevant today… and shows vividly the suffering others have endured at our hands, the same sort of suffering our government has pledged to fight… This book is the kind of true testimonial that all Americans should read.”—Clamor

“A worthwhile compilation for libraries and bookstores seeking titles on the subject.”—Criticas
