COLUMBIA - Ingrid Betancourt :UNTIL DEATH DO US PART

(JPG) Ingrid Betancourt, a senator and a presidential candidate in Colombia, grew up among diplomats, literati, and artists who congregated at her parents’ elegant home in Paris, France.

Her father served as Colombia’s ambassador to UNESCO and her mother, a political activist, continued her work on behalf of the country’s countless children whose lives were being destroyed by extreme poverty and institutional neglect. Intellectually, Ingrid was influenced by Pablo Neruda and other Latin American writers like Gabriel Garcia Marquez, who frequented her parents’ social circle. She studied at Ecole de Sciences Politiques de Paris, a prestigious academy in France.

From this charmed life, Ingrid Betancourt—not yet thirty, happily married to a French diplomat, and a mother of two children—returned to her native country in the late 1980s. On what was initially just a visit, she found her country under internal siege from the drug cartels and the corrupt government that had allowed them to flourish. After seeing what had become of Colombia’s democracy, she didn’t feel she could leave.

Until Death Do Us Part is the deeply personal story of a woman who gave up a life of comfort and safety to become a political leader in a country being slowly demolished by terrorism, violence, fear, and a pervasive sense of hopelessness. It is a country where democracy has been sacrificed for the well-being of the few, where international criminals determine policy, and where political assassinations are a way of life. Now forty, Ingrid Betancourt has been elected and reelected as a representative and as a senator in Colombia’s national legislature. She has founded a political party that has openly confronted Colombia’s leaders and has earned the respect of a nation. And now she has become a target of the establishment and the drug cartels behind it. Forced to move her children out of Colombia for protection against death threats, Ingrid Betancourt remained and continued to fight the political structure that has crumbled under the destructive power of the paramilitary forces, the financial omnipotence of the drug cartels, and the passivity of government-for-sale. Here is a political cocktail that has destroyed countless lives in Colombia and has spread to countries beyond its borders.

A memoir of a life in politics that reads like a fast-paced political thriller, Until Death Do Us Part—already an international bestseller—is a hair-raising account of one woman’s fight against the establishment. It is a story of a woman whose love for her country and faith in democracy gave her the courage to stand up to the power that has subjugated, intimidated, or corrupted all those who opposed it. A chilling account of the dangerous, byzantine machine that runs Colombia, it is also an inspiring story of privilege, sacrifice, and true patriotism.

Industry reviews "The story of Betancourt’s first 40 years is often a dizzying one, and she tells it well." New York Times Book Review - Tim Golden (03/31/2002)
