In this episode, the Travel Mom Squad is heading south! Jess shares her birthday trip to San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and Pam and Alex walk us through their tropical getaway to Roatán, Honduras. From charming colonial cities to vibrant beachside resorts, both of these escapes were powered by points and miles—and they're breaking down exactly how you can do it, too. Jess's San Miguel de Allende Birthday Getaway For her birthday, Jess wanted a trip that was cute, walkable, and filled with culture—and San Miguel de Allende checked all the boxes. She used points to book her flights and free nights at a boutique hotel that had cash rates of $800/night—a steal!  Jess shared how San Miguel felt totally different from places like Cancun—more Spanish-speaking, with rooftop restaurants, cobblestone streets, and an artsy vibe. She loved practicing her Spanish and appreciated how kid-friendly the town was (though leave the stroller at home). Highlights included a rooftop pool, the hotel's mascot dog Pancho (who even has his own Instagram), and a standout breakfast. Pro tip: order the San Miguel–style eggs! Roatán with Pam & Alex: Direct Flights & Island Vibes Pam and Alex flew to Roatán using United miles and IHG points. They started their stay in a bungalow—secluded, rustic, and quiet—then upgraded mid-trip to a Premium Ocean View room in the newer building.  Beach Time, Dining, and That Sweet Island Energy Roatán was a totally different vibe—bustling but beautiful. From colorful buildings to locals selling snacks on the beach, Pam and Alex loved the laid-back charm. Highlights included hotel spa visits, hospitality hours, and free snorkel gear and kayaks, plus great dining spots in town. Even when the resort was at maximum capacity, it still felt relaxing and fun. Alex and Pam both liked this resort even better than the Kimpton Grand Cayman, which is high praise! If you're dreaming of warm weather and want a new destination to add to your points wish list, this episode is packed with inspiration, strategy, and a few laughs. Tune in and start planning your own tropical escape! ☀️

La masacre de Allende, Coahuila, es uno de los episodios más crueles y dolorosos en la historia reciente de México. El 18 de marzo de 2011, un comando de al menos 60 hombres de Los Zetas tomó por asalto el pueblo. Todo comenzó como una venganza por una supuesta traición, pero terminó arrasando con familias enteras, viviendas y negocios, mientras las autoridades miraban hacia otro lado. Miguel Ángel Treviño Morales, alias “Z-40”, y su hermano Omar “Z-42”, líderes del grupo criminal, son señalados como los autores intelectuales.

Café Plus con Victoria Walsh y Dr. MIguel Allende, 10 de abril del 2025 by TXS Plus

En un nuevo episodio del “Política Podcast”, la conductora Rocío Gambra conversó con la antropóloga ancuditana Nancy Carola Márquez sobre el reordenamiento político tras la elección del nuevo presidente de la Cámara de Diputados, los roces entre el Partido Socialista y el Frente Amplio por el caso Allende, y el complejo escenario de las primarias presidenciales en la centroizquierda.

En Columnistas de Mesa Central, Ramón Ulloa y Kike Mujica conversaron con Isabel Plá y Tatiana Klima sobre las declaraciones de la abogada Francisca Moya, jefa jurídica de la Segpres, acerca de la fallida compra de la casa de Salvador Allende.

En un nuevo capítulo de “Política para Adultos”, Eduardo Sepúlveda conversa con Gerardo Varela y Pepe Auth sobre las consecuencias de las medidas arancelarias impuestas por Trump y sus efectos en la política chilena. Además, abordan la destitución de la senadora Isabel Allende y la renuncia de la ministra Jara, ahora candidata presidencial del PC.

En una nueva edición de Página 13, Kike Mujica conversó con las columnistas Andrea Vial y Paula Comandari sobre la historia de la fallida compra-venta de la casa del ex presidente Salvador Allende por parte del Estado, y las herramientas más usada de la inteligencia artificial, más allá del chat GPT.

Isabel Allende sorprendió con un discurso en el Senado tras ser destituida, evitando autocrítica y culpando a otros por su situación. Criticó al Tribunal Constitucional y su salida del cargo, mostrando un afán de victimizarse. Se destaca la falta de asunción de responsabilidad por parte de la exparlamentaria. Además, se menciona el preocupante caso de un gendarme baleado en su casa, con amenazas directas, resaltando la necesidad de proteger a los funcionarios penitenciarios.

El ministro del Interior, Álvaro Elizalde, se refirió a la histórica destitución de la senadora socialista Isabel Allende -ordenado por el TC-, advirtiendo que en otros casos similares "la jurisprudencia del tribunal había sido distinta". En entrevista con El Diario de Cooperativa, el secretario de Estado afirmó que, aunque "en Chile los fallos se acatan, si se confirman los trascendidos estaremos en presencia de un precedente grave". Conduce Verónica Franco y Rodrigo Vergara.

En el programa de hoy, Fernando Villegas analiza la polémica destitución de la senadora Isabel Allende por una operación de compraventa inconstitucional, cuestionando las justificaciones del gobierno sobre la "buena fe" y la "trayectoria política" de la afectada. Critica duramente la reacción de la vocera Camila Vallejo, el apoyo de Boric al "legado" Allende y el discurso incoherente del presidente del PC, Lautaro Carmona, en defensa de Janeth Jara, cuestionada por usar recursos públicos mientras aún es ministra. Luego aborda protestas en EE.UU. contra Trump, calificándolas de masivas pero vacías, y cuestiona la hipocresía del gobierno chino al defender ahora el libre comercio tras ser afectado por aranceles. Finalmente, comenta resultados de la encuesta Criteria, analizando el alza de Evelyn Matthei y José Antonio Kast, la baja de Kaiser y reflexionando sobre la inestabilidad de la "mente colectiva" nacional.

En el programa de hoy, Fernando Villegas reflexiona sobre el concepto de las dinastías, tanto políticas como artísticas, a partir del caso reciente de Isabel Allende, cesada de su cargo por el Tribunal Constitucional chileno. A propósito de ello, examina cómo ciertas familias mantienen poder o relevancia a través de generaciones, y analiza las razones sociales y culturales que hacen posible este fenómeno. Comenta ejemplos nacionales e internacionales, incluyendo a los Kennedy, los Borbones, los Habsburgo y las familias Parra y Bach, diferenciando entre la herencia de ambiente y la posible herencia genética. También destaca la funcionalidad histórica de las dinastías en monarquías para evitar guerras civiles. Cuestiona la validez de otorgar prestigio a ciertos apellidos por encima de otros y concluye que muchas veces el entorno y los incentivos del poder explican la continuidad de ciertos linajes, más que una verdadera transmisión de talento o virtud.

La presidenta del Partido Socialista, Paulina Vodanovic, reafirmó en Cooperativa que, tras la filtración del fallo del Tribunal Constitucional que destituyó desde el Senado a su histórica militante Isabel Allende, su tienda está "dolida" con el Frente Amplio. "Dentro de mi partido hay un ánimo complejo en contra del Frente Amplio: se ve toda esta cadena de errores, de desprolijidades, que terminan con la salida de una senadora (...), que tiene que ver con nuestra historia como país, como partido, y que es lo que finalmente vemos con mucha pena", expresó la parlamentaria en El Primer Café. Conduce Cecilia Rovaretti.

Tercer capítulo de la entrega de la Encuesta Cosa Nostra en FNM: la última novedad presidencial, movimientos por derecha y más... Imperdible programa de Tere Marinovic con Alberto Mayol.

Nicolás Vergara, Matías del Río y Consuelo Saavedra conversaron con el abogado representante de Chile Vamos ante el Tribunal Constitucional por el requerimiento para destituir a la senadora Isabel Allende (PS), Máximo Pavez, aobre la determinación de cesar a la parlamentaria de sus funciones.

Los abogados de la senadora Isabel Allende se quejan de la filtración de la resolución del Tribunal Constitucional que decretó su destitución, sin haber tenido acceso previo al fallo. A pesar de esto, la defensa no aborda el fondo de la resolución, que indica la destitución de la senadora por incumplir la Constitución, generando diversas reacciones en el Partido Socialista. Se cuestiona la vinculación de la familia Allende con la actuación política correcta, y se señala la necesidad de asumir responsabilidades políticas y administrativas, incluyendo a la misma senadora Allende.

En un nuevo episodio del Política Podcast, la periodista Rocío Gambra y el asesor en seguridad Jorge Contreras abordaron el reciente fallo del Tribunal Constitucional que ordena el cese de funciones de la senadora Isabel Allende, destacando su impacto político. También analizaron la instalación aún incompleta del Ministerio de Seguridad Pública y el incierto escenario de candidaturas presidenciales.

Saint John Hunt is the eldest son of "super-spy" E. Howard Hunt, a 27-year career C.I.A. covert agent and Foreign Station Chief, most well-known as the Leader / Director of the White House "plumbers" black bag team, who's botched burglary & arrest led to the impeachment & resignation of then President Richard Nixon.E. Howard Hunt, who passed away in January at the age of 88, was also involved in many of the C.I.A.'s most nefarious operations in Cuba and throughout Central & South America, including but not limited to the assassination of Che Guevara, assassination of Allende and coup in Chile, the coup in Guatemala, the orchestration of the Bay of Pigs, and plots to assassinate Fidel Castro. He is considered by many investigators to be one of the 3 "tramps" intercepted, detained, photographed and released without arrest or charges near the grassy knoll at the Dealy Plaza scene of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.Even more significant, Hunt had direct knowledge of the planning, particulars, participants and motives in the J.F.K assassination and has confided and entrusted this information and documentation to his son Saint John.Following the Watergate debacle, Saint John's father was sentenced to and served 33 months in Federal prison. Saint's mother Dorothy was killed in an extremely suspicious airplane "accident", while carrying a very large amount of cash to be distributed as hush money to co-conspirators and participants.On the very night of the botched Watergate 'job', Saint John was awakened in the middle of the night and at his father's plea / direction, became an active participant in assisting his father in the disposal of potentially compromising / incriminating evidence from the bungled burglary. Throughout his youth and into early adulthood, Saint John traveled worldwide, as his father pursued his duties as a covert C.I.A. operative. He was his father's proud son and trusted confidante. Hunt's career as a savvy, sophisticated intellectual, yet tough-as-nails team leader & 'can do' covert operative, made him the perfect Hollywood spy "role model" for characters like television's Mission Impossible team leader "Mister Phelps" and the follow-up film series, featuring Tom Cruise as "Ethan Hunt", a thinly veiled reference to Everett Howard Hunt.As the legendary spymaster (now age 88) lay in a Miami hospital bed, dying, his oldest son, Saint John Hunt sat in vigil at his bedside and shared his father's final days. As both a loving, compassionate son and an experienced professional care-provider, Saint spent many hours over the course of those final days at his fathers deathbed-side, and has been entrusted with privileged information, documents, audio recordings and other revealing items & explosive evidence regarding the Kennedy assassination.Saint John Hunt has been interviewed for a feature article on his father's life in the April 5, 2007 edition of "Rolling Stone" magazine, and also by the Los Angeles Times newspaper.He has appeared as a guest with both Ian Punnet and George Noory on "Coast-toCoast AM", with Alex Jones on "Prison Planet", with CNN's Glen Beck, and other broadcast, on-line and print media. (See links below.)Additionally he has recently been interviewed by Jim Moret for television's "Inside Edition" and is set to appear on an upcoming episode of CBS 60 Minutes.Saint John Hunt's new book "Bond of Secrecy" is set for publishing and he has written a screenplay with Eric Hamburg (Screenwriter / Co-Producer with Oliver Stone on the feature film "Nixon") and is in negotiations for production of a feature film about his father's career, their life together and the dark secrets of the C.I.A.In coming forward to discuss his father's career , their unique intimate personal relationship and their bond of secrecy, Saint John Hunt is hopeful that in revealing the in-depth information and evidence he has, he will help provide the critical missing pieces of the puzzle surrounding the Kennedy Assassination.It is his deepest desire that these revelations will bring closure and light upon the darkest chapter of our nations history. A darkness continuing to this very day, which imminently threatens our liberties and future as free Americans.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

Jorge Luis Paez Allende (Capitan de la Fuerza Aerea retirado y vuelto a reincorporar dos veces 78 y el 82) Unas Cuantas Verdades @marianoobarrio

Josefina Stavrakopolus y Nicolás Vial hicieron un repaso a la actualidad.

El diputado Gustavo Benavente se refiere a las votaciones que ocurrieron hoy en ambas cámaras.

For more than three decades, trailblazing artist and activist Joyce J. Scott has elevated the creative potential of beadwork as a relevant contemporary art form. Scott uses off-loom, hand-threaded glass beads to create striking figurative sculptures, wall hangings, and jewelry informed by her African American ancestry, the craft traditions of her family (including her mother, renowned quilter Elizabeth T. Scott), and traditional Native American techniques, such as the peyote stitch. Each object that Scott creates is a unique, vibrant, and challenging work of art developed with imagination, wit, and sly humor. Born to sharecroppers in North Carolina who were descendants of enslaved people, Scott's family migrated to Baltimore, Maryland, where the artist was born and raised. Scott hales from a long line of makers with extraordinary craftsmanship adept at pottery, knitting, metalwork, basketry, storytelling, and quilting. It was from her family that the young artist cultivated the astonishing skills and expertise for which she is now renowned, and where she learned to upcycle all materials, repositioning craft as a forceful stage for social commentary and activism. In the 1990s, Scott began working with glass artisans to create blown, pressed, and cast glass that she incorporated into her beaded sculptures. This not only allowed her to increase the scale of her work, but also satisfied her desire to collaborate. In 1992, she was invited to the Pilchuck Glass School, Stanwood, Washington. Continuing her interest in glass, Scott has worked with local Baltimore glassblowers as well as with flameworking pioneer Paul Stankard and other celebrated glass fabricators. In 2012, Goya Contemporary Gallery arranged to have Scott work at Adriano Berengo's celebrated glass studio on the island of Murano in Italy, creating works that were part of the exhibition Glasstress through the Venice Biennale. Scott has worn many hats during her illustrious career: quilter, performance artist, printmaker, sculptor, singer, teacher, textile artist, recording artist, painter, writer, installation artist, and bead artist. Her wide-ranging body of work has crossed styles and mediums, from the most intricate beaded form to large-scale outdoor installation. Whether social or political, the artist's subject matter reflects her narrative of what it means to be Black in America.  Scott continues to live and work in Baltimore, Maryland. She received a BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art and an MFA from Instituto Allende in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Selected solo museum exhibitions include The Baltimore Museum of Art (2024); Seattle Art Museum (2024 – 2025); and Grounds for Sculpture (2018), Trenton, NJ. She is the recipient of myriad commissions, grants, awards, residencies, and prestigious honors including from the National Endowment for the Arts, Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, Anonymous Was a Woman, American Craft Council, National Living Treasure Award, Lifetime Achievement Award from the Women's Caucus for the Arts, Mary Sawyers Imboden Baker Award, MacArthur Foundation Fellowship (2016), Smithsonian Visionary Artist Award, National Academy of Design Induction, and Moore College Visionary Woman Award, among others. In March of 2024, Scott opened a major 50-year traveling Museum retrospective titled Joyce J. Scott: Walk a Mile in My Dreams co-organized by the Baltimore Museum of Art and Seattle Art Museum. Also in 2024, Scott opened Bearing Witness: A History of Prints by Joyce J Scott at Goya Contemporary Gallery. Her latest exhibition, Joyce J. Scott: Messages, opened at The Chrysler Museum of Art on February 6, 2025 and will run through August 17, 2025 at the Glass Projects Space. This exhibition is organized by Mobilia Gallery, Cambridge, MA. Says Carolyn Swan Needell, the Chrysler Museum's Barry Curator of Glass: “We are thrilled to host this focused traveling exhibition here in Norfolk at the very moment when Scott's brilliant career is being recognized more widely, through a retrospective of her work that is co-organized by the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Seattle Museum of Art.”  In Messages, 34 remarkable beaded works of art spanning the artist's career express contemporary issues and concepts. Included in the show is Scott's recent beaded neckpiece, War, What is it Good For, Absolutely Nothin', Say it Again (2022). A technical feat in peyote stitch, infused with color and texture, this multilayered and intricate beadwork comments on violence in America. Embedding cultural critique within the pleasurable experience of viewing a pristinely crafted object, Scott's work mines history to better understand the present moment. The visual richness of Scott's objects starkly contrasts with the weight of the subject matter that they explore. She says: “I am very interested in raising issues…I skirt the borders between comedy, pathos, delight, and horror. I believe in messing with stereotypes, prodding the viewer to reassess, inciting people to look and then carry something home – even if it's subliminal – that might make a change in them.”   

En el programa de hoy, se debatió la polémica decisión del retail de abrir el Viernes Santo, lo que generó reacciones de sindicatos, la Iglesia y sectores políticos, incluyendo un proyecto de la UDI y RN para declarar ese día feriado irrenunciable. También se discutió el rechazo del proyecto de ley anti nepotismo propuesto por republicanos, revelando el oportunismo y cobardía de sectores políticos. Se abordó la negligencia del gobierno frente a los incendios en La Araucanía, destacando la renuncia de un funcionario aparentemente por motivos políticos y discriminatorios ligados a su postura pro-Israel. Se reflexionó sobre el antisemitismo en Chile y el impacto de las posturas personales del Presidente Boric en las instituciones del Estado. Asimismo, se cuestionó el deterioro de la figura presidencial, ejemplificado por la inscripción de más de 100 precandidatos a la presidencia y el comportamiento poco responsable del mandatario. Finalmente, se criticó el rechazo de la acusación constitucional contra Maya Fernández por la compra de la casa de Allende, interpretándolo como una renuncia del Congreso a su deber fiscalizador.

Dice un sabio refrán que, si la vida te da un samurái, hagas historias de samuráis. Así que como tenemos a Rubén Ibarzabal por estos lares, no hemos perdido la ocasión de charlar sobre la historia del país del sol naciente. Y hoy nos ilustra sobre la creación de una guardia de corps del Shogun nacida en un tiempo de transición en el que Japón tuvo que abrirse al mundo por la vía de la fuerza. En ese contexto crearon el cuerpo de los Shinsengumi, llamados a poner orden en las calles de Kioto. No os perdáis la primera de las dos entregas que dedicaremos a los que bien podemos tildar de últimos samuráis. En la segunda entrega cambiamos de tercio para escuchar a nuestra antropóloga, Noemi Villaverde, hablando de un libro publicado reciéntemente, “Paso a paso” (Capitán Swing, 2024). La obra del paleoantropólogo Jeremy DeSilva ofrece un relato evolutivo que explica cómo caminar erguidos hizo que la humanidad se conviertera en la especie dominante en la tierra. Todo con el inconfundible estilo de Una Antropóloga en la Luna. Terminamos con una antigua entrega de Allende los mares, con Pello Larrinaga, que también conducirá la despedida. En esta ocasión, nos traía una propuesta inusual: recopilar canciones que hablan de historia. Así es, música de muy diferentes tipos, estilos e idiomas que abordan personajes o sucesos históricos, desde Tierra Santa a Mecano, pasando por Los Nikis, Guns N' Roses o Mago de Oz Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals

This episode has been sponsored by the Mellon Foundation, the Department of Humanities at the UPR-M, and the Instituto Nuevos Horizontes.  This is the second podcast with Ilan Stavans about Latino USA; the first, in Spanish, is available on the New Books Network en español. About the book: In Latino USA, Latin American and Latino scholar Ilan Stavans captures the joys, nuances, and multiple dimensions of Latino culture within the context of the English language. Combining the solemnity of so-called serious literature and history with the inherently theatrical and humorous form of comics, this cartoon history of Latinos includes Columbus, the Alamo, Desi Arnaz, West Side Story, Castro, Guevara, the Bay of Pigs, Neruda, the Mariel boatlift, Selena, Sonia Sotomayor, and much more. To embrace the sweep of Hispanic civilization and its riot of types, archetypes, and stereotypes, Stavans deploys a series of "cliché figurines" as narrators, including a toucan (displayed regularly in books by García Márquez, Allende, and others), the beloved Latino comedian Cantinflas, a masked wrestler, and Captain America. Their multiple, at times contradictory voices provide unique perspectives on Latino history, together creating a carnivalesque epic, democratic and impartial. Updated to bring the book up to the present moment, this twenty-fifth anniversary edition includes thirty new pages of Latino history, from Hamilton to George Santos. Latino USA, like the history it so entertainingly relates, is a treasure trove of irreverence, wit, subversion, anarchy, politics, humanism, and celebration.

John Perkins is a storyteller. His stories tell of his work as an economic hit man, creator of a death economy that is polluting and consuming itself into extinction. He has served as advisor to the World Bank, UN, IMF, Fortune 500 corporations, and government and business leaders across the globe. “You know, my job was pretty easy, generally speaking, because I was offering the president of a country or his finance minister, whoever, a big loan. And the fact that this loan would help him and his family, his friends – they owned the businesses in most cases – they were the ones who benefited from big infrastructure” “They knew that if they didn't accept this deal, the people we call the jackals would come in and they would either overthrow or assassinate the President, whoever was responsible. And, you know, the United States has admitted to this over and over. Allende in Chile, Mossadegh in Iran, Lumumba in the Congo. My two clients. We haven't admitted to that one yet, but we have admitted to Diem in Vietnam and more recently [Manuel] Zelaya in Honduras. We've admitted to these things.” For seven out of his ten years as an economic hit man, John believed what he was taught in business school: to help a poor country pull itself out of poverty, you invest heavily in infrastructure. Statistically this can be shown to increase the country's economy – its GDP and GDP per capita. Per capita implies that everybody in the country is participating, but that's just not true. “GDP primarily measures how well the wealthy are doing and the big corporations.” John's insights are not merely theoretical; they are rooted in personal experience. In other episodes of this podcast, we've talked about cycles of debt that sink global South nations into dire poverty. In this conversation, John recounts the manipulative tactics for securing lucrative contracts for US corporations across the globe, thus creating these debt traps. To repair the damage, John urges a radical shift towards a ‘life economy'—one that focuses on sustainability, equity, and regeneration. John Perkins served as Chief Economist at a major consulting firm and was advisor to the World Bank, UN, IMF, Fortune 500 corporations, and government and business leaders in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and the United States. Before that, he apprenticed with shamans when he lived in the Amazon rainforest from 1968 to 1971 and has since studied with shamans from many different cultures. His eleven books on economics, shamanism, and transformation include the Confessions of an Economic Hit Man trilogy; Shapeshifting; The World Is as You Dream It; and Touching the Jaguar. They have been on the New York Times bestseller list for more than 70 weeks, sold millions of copies, and are published in at least 38 languages. https://johnperkins.org/

Han hecho falta casi 15 años para que por fin titulemos un programa con la biblioteca más célebrede todos los tiempos, la mítica Biblioteca de Alejandría, cuna del saber antiguo cuya pérdida fue, sin duda, dramática para el conocimiento. De su historia nos hablarán Sergio Alejo y Oscar Hernández, que nos visita por segunda vez en esta temporada Y de Egipto nos vamos a un líder que algo tuvo que ver también con el país del Nilo. Aunque en nuestra saga sobre Napoléon, con Bikendi Goiko-uria en la vanguardia, todo aquello quedó atrás. Hoy narraremos su coronación, pero también los planes de invasión de Inglaterra y, finalmente, del desastre marítimo de Trafalgar. No se lo pierdan. Sin cambiar de época, cerramos con una repetición de un Allende los Mares, con Pello Larrinaga, donde recordaremos un extraño suceso naval ocurrido en 1801 durante la campaña de Algeciras en el marco de las guerras revolucionarias francesas. Dos navíos de línea españoles, el Real Carlos y el San Hermenegildo, estallaron por los aires tras cañonearse entre ellos. Ambos buques formaban parte de una flota combinada franco-española que era perseguida a través del Estrecho de Gilbraltar por otra británica. Comentaremos los pormenores del suceso.

Two new novels tackle themes of motherhood and family secrets. First, in Emma Knight's The Life Cycle of the Common Octopus, 18-year-old Pen has just arrived as a student at the University of Edinburgh. For Pen's whole life, she's sensed that her parents were hiding something from her – and she believes the answers might lie in Scotland. In today's episode, Knight joins NPR's Mary Louise Kelly for a conversation about her debut novel. They discuss the first character that came to Knight – and her use of the octopus as a metaphor for early motherhood. Then in Rosarita, the latest novel from Anita Desai, a strange encounter at a park in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, throws the protagonist's family history into question. The story follows Bonita as she tries to untangle her mother's past. In today's episode, Desai speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about the way her character finds pieces of India in Mexico and the dual lives of women.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
