FROM THE PUBLISHER - IN SPANISH. In a very short time, Isabel Allende has won the allegiance and affection of readers and reviewers around the world-first with The House of the Spirits (praised by Alexander Coleman in The New York Tines Book Review as ‘a unique achievement, both personal witness and possible allegory of the past, present and future of Latin America'), followed closely by OF LOVE AND SHADOWS (of which Jonathan Yardley said in The Washington Post Book REVIEW, ‘The people . are so real, their triumphs and defeats are so faithful to the truth of human existence, that we see the world in miniature. This is precisely what fiction should do'). Now, in EVA LUNA, she has written her most ambitious and original work, a book that makes the foreign both familiar and welcoming, a book that confirms beyond any doubt her status as a major literary presence. inventory #14734 ISBN: 9580602336.
