Compelling Chilean Books in Translation

"Chile: the "land of poets." The country has produced two stunning Nobel laureates (both poets) and has a rich and exciting literary tradition.
Many of Chile's most well-known writers of modern times wrote their works outside of Chile, due to a long period of self-imposed "exiles" amidst the repression and danger under dictator Augusto Pinochet. And so, quite a few of the books on this list deal with Chile under that dictatorship, its impact, and its lingering trauma. Not all the books or stories take place in Chile itself, as many of these writers dealt with the experience of being an expat in other countries, still representing their home but far from its borders."
