Something Fierce: Memoirs of a Revolutionary Daughter

A gripping, darkly comic first-hand account of a young underground revolutionary during the Pinochet dictatorship in 1980s Chile.

Writing with passion and deep personal insight, Carmen captures her constant struggle to reconcile her commitment to the movement with the desires of her youth and her budding sexuality.  Something Fierce is a gripping story of love, war and resistance and a rare first-hand account of revolutionary life.
