The news of October 1998 that General Pinochet had been arrested in Britain presaged two years of international interest in the case and its ramifications for travelling tyrants the world over. Marc Cooper went to Chile and became translator to Salvadore Allende, the first democratically elected Marxist head of state. With an office in the Moneda Palace, the author had to flee as the US sponsored bombing on September 11, 1973 sent the palace up in flames. Twenty five years after escaping Chile, Marc Cooper returns and recounts on a country that is a democracy in name only and on a society that has been transformed by one of the most radical revolutions of our time. This book tells the story of how the dictator's detention has lifted a stranglehold that suffocated Chile's moral sensibility for a generation. "Pinochet and Me" is part memoir and part street-level reporting and it looks at the decisive moments of the Allende government, the terror of the Pinochet coup, the disillusion with a consumer-driven pseudo-democracy and the recent days of Pinochet's arrest.
