Ariel necesitaba dinero, y Joseph Hortha lo tenía en exceso. Unidos por la gratitud hacia el fallecido presidente chileno Salvador Allende y la necesidad persistente de saber si el asesinato o el suicidio terminaron con su vida durante el golpe de 1973, los dos hombres se embarcan en una pesquisa que los llevará de Washington DC y Nueva York a Santiago y Valparaíso, y finalmente a Londres. Pero mientras repasan y analizan la lucha política de Salvador Allende, su muerte, la diáspora posterior y los intentos de regresar al país, Ariel y Joseph deben ayudarse mutuamente a explorar la culpa y el trauma por catástrofes personales ocultas en ese mismo pasado, para preguntarse, en esta novela que sondea los límites del género novelístico, expandiéndolos de una manera insospechada y excepcional, qué le debemos al mundo, a los demás y a nosotros mismos. «El brillante Ariel Dorfman se ha superado a sí mismo con esta fascinantemente original y profunda supernova de novela [...] Allende y el museo del suicidio es tantas cosas perfectas: un misterio trotamundos, un valiente viaje al pasado de pesadilla de Chile, un tierno canto a los lazos que nos mantienen humanos, pero sobre todo es el mejor libro que he leído en una década.» Junot Díaz «Allende y el museo del suicidio es un libro de memorias, un misterio, una tragedia, un tratado filosófico, un canto al regreso a casa y una espectacular mezcla de lo real y lo imaginario.» Colum McCann
