About this product

Product Information

"NEW YORK TIMES" BESTSELLER In one of the most important and beloved Latin American works of the twentieth century, Isabel Allende weaves a luminous tapestry of three generations of the Trueba family, revealing both triumphs and tragedies. Here is patriarch Esteban, whose wild desires and political machinations are tempered only by his love for his ethereal wife, Clara, a woman touched by an otherworldly hand. Their daughter, Blanca, whose forbidden love for a man Esteban has deemed unworthy infuriates her father, yet will produce his greatest joy: his granddaughter Alba, a beautiful, ambitious girl who will lead the family and their country into a revolutionary future. "The House of the Spirits" is an enthralling saga that spans decades and lives, twining the personal and the political into an epic novel of love, magic, and fate.

    It’s never too late to read an authors first book.

    I’ve love all of Isabelle Allende books. Discovered them / her at an author event at my local indie book store a few yrs ago . House of Spirits her first comes up in many of her interviews and now after finally getting time to read it I know why. The characters are well written and I Will remember them forever.

    Excellent novel!

    This is a great novel, everyone should read it and acquaint themselves with the historical background. About the physical book, it arrived in good used shape, no markings, no underlinings. The envelope got very soiled with oil or grease though, and some of it passed through and soiled the front cover.
