We're So Tired: Why International Women's Day Matters | VICE:

Really like it when the phone calls you’ve been having for years with your girl feel summarized in a fucking great article written by your girl.

THE HOUSE OF THE SPIRITS

Blanca and Clara shut the house up “one by one they opened the bird cages, and the sky filled […] which flew around in circles, blinded by their sudden freedom, and finally took off in every direction.

Clara’s evolution of presence
-mute
-“lovely”
Esteban swore that sooner or later she would love him as he needed to be loved, even if it meant he had to resort to extreme measures.
-pregnant/elevated
…her listlessness had vanished, she had stopped finding everything ‘so lovely’
-determined and oppositional
The more distant Clara became, the more I needed her love. The desire I had for her when we married had not diminished; I wanted to possess her absolutely, down to her last thought […] I could never make her mine. Her spirit wasn’t with me.
-pregnant and sick
-quiet, inward
Besides, I had come to understand that silence was my wife’s last refuge, not a mental illness as Dr. Cuevas said it was.
-spiritual and accumulating followers
He realized that Clara did not belong to him and that if she continued living in a world of apparitions, three-legged tables that moved of their own volition, and cards that spelled out the future, she probably never would.
-eyes opened, earthquake (violence, death, etc.)
-awakened as Treuba becomes an invalid in every way, repulsed by his loudness, attracted to Garcia’s quiet
We made love with a violence and ferocity I had almost forgotten after so much sailing in the ship of the gentle blue silk sea. In that chaos of sheets and pilows, clasped in the living knot of desire, screwed into each other to the point of fainting, I felt I was twenty again, and happy holding in my arms this bold, swarthy woman who didn’t fall apart when you got on top of her, a strong mare you could ride on without giving a second thought, who didn’t make your hands feel heavy, your voice hard, your feet gigantic, or your beard too scratchy, but someone like yourself, who could take a string of bad words in her ear and didn’t need to be rocked with tender arguments or coaxed with flattery. Afterward […] admiring the solid curve of her hips, and the shudder of her snake.
-strong
Clara travels on her own for the first time. No more ghosts:
Her mother seemed to have become a real down-to-earth woman.
[…] guided more by her intuition than be her knowledge of things or by logic…
Blanca was surprised to see her mother, whom she remembered as a lighthearted, absent-minded angel dressed in white, transformed into an efficient woman with callused hands and two deep lines at the corners of her mouth.

Is Allende’s presence of spiritual communication representative of simple ‘being a woman’?
It seems simple but this is one facet that will never belong to him (Esteban). If something (womanhood) does not belong to you, are you afraid of it?
