It took a while to choose a writer I wanted to present to the class because there is a couple of writers that fascinate me. I finally decided to present on Isabel Allende, a Chilean writer with whom I have a quasi personal relationship. Apart from being a feminist, she has lived most of my life experiences from the war in Chile and the exile to the US so I can identify with her very well.
My purpose is to inform the audience of this wonderful writer and maybe persuade them to read one of her novels. I will do this by calling their attention to movies done on her books, also famous titles that they might have seen at the book store. I will also explain her feminist views and her activism.
The presentation will be done in a power point slide show with pictures of her and the use of Youtube where I will show segments of her speech that the audience can listen to in its entirety through Ted.com.
Hopefully by the end of the presentation my audience will know Isabel and be intrigued enough to pick up one of her books. At the least I want my audience to know her name just in case the run across some of her work either in novels or activism in the future.
