Synopsis
An Oprah Book Club Selection! From the New York Times bestselling author of The House of the Spirits , Isabelle Allende, comes a passionate tale of one young woman's quest to save her lover set against the chaos of the 1849 California Gold Rush. Orphaned at birth, Eliza Sommers is raised in the British colony of Valparaíso, Chile, by the well-intentioned Victorian spinster Miss Rose and her more rigid brother Jeremy. Just as she meets and falls in love with the wildly inappropriate Joaquín Andieta, a lowly clerk who works for Jeremy, gold is discovered in the hills of northern California. By 1849, Chileans of every stripe have fallen prey to feverish dreams of wealth. Joaquín takes off for San Francisco to seek his fortune, and Eliza, pregnant with his child, decides to follow him. As Eliza embarks on her perilous journey north in the hold of a ship and arrives in the rough-and-tumble world of San Francisco, she must navigate a society dominated by greedy men. But Eliza soon catches on with the help of her natural spirit and a good friend, the Chinese doctor Tao Chi'en. What began as a search for love ends up as the conquest of personal freedom. A marvel of storytelling, Daughter of Fortune confirms once again Isabel Allende's extraordinary gift for fiction and her place as one of the world's leading writers., An Oprah Book Club Selection!

    This bowl is not a 5" bowl, but it is the bowl that I wanted. I already have this pattern, so I was able to determine from the photos that it was just the bowl I was looking for to complete my set. Seller shipped the bowl in innovative and effective packaging! Arrived quickly in perfect condition. It was a pleasure doing business with this seller. I have saved the seller for future reference.

  • Love the author plus the library book!

    I find library books are in great condition, because they have plastic covers on them. I like reading books. I am online all the time. I do not want to read a book online. Great author! And wonderful quality of hard cover book. The print is large enough for me to read in my 70's. Thx.
