September Caribbean Memo 2013

Dear Friends:
General Augusto Pinochet changed Chile 40 years ago
this month.
By that we mean, he ended an attempt led by Fidel
Castro to turn Chile into a second Cuba.
After doing so, Pinochet opened the way for a
democratically elected government. And as a result, this South American country
became one of the most prosperous in the region.
And interestingly enough, his achievement to this
day is criticized by the political left.
Our Novel, “Chile-New York: The Eleventh of
September,’’ tells the story.
In an attempt to find out what happened and then
report on it, we spent three months there to examine both sides of the
argument.
We say these things because we're interested in
telling a story about the world centered on the Caribbean and Latin America.
And we think we've done that in six historical-political
novels. They can be viewed on our WebSite: natcarnes.com.
A Caribbean Memo collection can also be viewed on the
Website by clicking ‘Memo’.
Remember, we are interested in your comments, pro
and con. In other words, that's how we learn.
And please let us know if you want your name taken
off the Caribbean Memo list.
