Synopsis "Eva Luna (in Spanish)"

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.

Isabel Allende was born in 1942, in Peru, spent her early childhood in Chile and lived in various places during her adolescence and youth. After the military coup in 1973 in Chile, she went into exile in Venezuela and since 1987 has lived as an immigrant in California. She defines herself as an "eternal foreigner."

She began her literary career in journalism, in Chile and Venezuela. In 1982 her first novel, The House of the Spirits, became one of the legendary titles of Latin American literature. 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.

She has received more than sixty international awards, including the Chilean National Literature Prize in 2010, the Hans Christian Andersen Award in Denmark, in 2012, for her trilogy "Memories of the Eagle and the Jaguar" and the Medal of Freedom in the United States, the highest civilian honor, in 2014. In 2018, Isabel Allende became the first Spanish-language writer awarded the medal of honor of the National Book Award, in the United States for her significant contribution to the world of letters.
