Product Information

La primera novela de Isabel Allende, La casa de los esp ritus narra la saga de una poderosa familia de terratenientes latinoamericanos. El desp tico patriarca Esteban Trueba ha construido con mano de hierro un imperio privado que empieza a tambalearse con el paso del tiempo y un entorno social explosivo. Finalmente, la decadencia personal del patriarca arrastrar a los Trueba a una dolorosa desintegraci n. Atrapados en unas dram ticas relaciones familiares, los personajes de esta poderosa novela encarnan las tensiones sociales y espirituales de una poca que abarca gran parte del siglo XX. Con impecable pulso narrativo y gran lucidez hist rica, Isabel Allende ha creado un fresco en el que conviven lo cotidiano con lo maravilloso, el amor con la revoluci n y los ideales personales con la dura realidad pol tica. La cr tica ha dicho: &la"Un logro nico, a la vez testimonio personal y posible alegor a del pasado, el presente y el futuro de Am rica Latina. The New York Times Book Review &la"Una cr nica fuerte y absorbente de una familia chilena, con detalles opulentos y con un trasfondo m stico... Un refinada combinaci n de escenarios. Kirkus Review &la"Hay muy pocos viajes m s emocionantes que los realizados en la imaginaci n de una novelista genial. Esa experiencia est disponible en La Casa de los Esp ritus de Isabel Allende... Cosmopolitan ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Spectacular...An absorbing and distinguished work...The House of the Spirits with its all-informing, generous, and humane sensibility, is a unique achievement, both personal witness and possible allegory of the past, present, and future of Latin America." --The New York Times Book Review The House of the Spirits , the unforgettable first novel that established Isabel Allende as one of the world's most gifted storytellers, brings to life the triumphs and tragedies of three generations of the Trueba family. The patriarch Esteban is a volatile, proud man whose voracious pursuit of political power is tempered only by his love for his delicate wife Clara, a woman with a mystical connection to the spirit world. When their daughter Blanca embarks on a forbidden love affair in defiance of her implacable father, the result is an unexpected gift to Esteban: his adored granddaughter Alba, a beautiful and strong-willed child who will lead her family and her country into a revolutionary future. One of the most important novels of the twentieth century, The House of the Spirits is an enthralling epic that spans decades and lives, weaving the personal and the political into a universal story of love, magic, and fate.
