Synopsis "eva luna (in Spanish)"

tercera novela de la autora en la que recupera su país a través de la memoria y de la imaginación.

en eva luna , su tercera novela, isabel allende recupera su país a través de la memoria y de la imaginación. la cautivadora protagonista de este libro es un nostálgico alter ego de la autora, que se llama a sí misma ladrona de historias, precisamente porque en las historias radica el secreto de la vida y del mundo. como una moderna scherezade, eva luna convierte su vida en una tragicomedia por la que desfila una sorprendente galería de personajes: un embalsamador de cadáveres, una madrina que sobrevive a una decapitación, una mujer con cuerpo de hombre, un fotógrafo austríaco atormentado por los recuerdos del nazismo... con ternura e impecable factura literaria, isabel allende perfila el destino de sus personajes como parte indisoluble del destino colectivo de un continente marcado por el mestizaje, las injusticias sociales y la búsqueda de la propia identidad. este logrado universo narrativo es el resultado de una lúcida conciencia histórica y social, así como de una propuesta estética que constituye una singular expresión del realismo mágico.

It was followed by many others, all of which have been international successes. Her work has been translated into forty languages and has sold more than seventy million copies, making her the best-selling Spanish-language writer.
