description: Spanning four generations, Isabel Allende's magnificent family saga is populated by a memorable, often eccentric, cast of characters. Together, men and women, spirits, the forces of nature and of history, converge in an unforgettable, wholly absorbing and brlliantly realised novel that is as richly entertaining as it is a masterpiece of modern literature.
