Coventina (coventinas) | 1 comments The House of the Spirits

* Title: The House Of The Spirits
* Author name: Isabel Allende
* Publisher: Vintage Classics
* Publication Date Year: 2025
* Page count: 528
* Format: Paperback
* Language: English
* Description: As a girl, Clara del Valle can read fortunes, make objects move as if they had lives of their own, and predict the future.

Following the mysterious death of her sister, Rosa the Beautiful, Clara is mute for nine years. When she breaks her silence, it is to announce that she will be married soon to the stern and volatile landowner Esteban Trueba.

Set in an unnamed Latin American country over three generations, The House of the Spirits is a magnificent epic of a proud and passionate family, secret loves and violent revolution.

'Extraordinary... Powerful... Sharply observant, witty and eloquent' New York Times

'Intensely moving. Both entertaining and deeply serious' Evening Standard

'The only cause The House of the Spirits embraces is that of humanity, and it does so with such passion, humor, and wisdom that in the end it transcends politics…The result is a novel of force and charm, spaciousness and vigor' Washington Post

Javier (palchetti) | 30764 comments Don't forget to include a link to book page which includes the cover on a NON-BOOKSELLER site, such as a publisher site, an author site, etc.; we need to check/verify the book's details, e.g. isbn and/or asin, etc. etc.
If linking to a site such as Imgur, Dropbox, etc. please state the original source of the image. No B&N or other (non-publishing) bookseller links can be used as sources for covers or other book data, with the exception of Amazon and its subsidiaries.

Also, does this book have an ISBN?

Eline | 6607 comments Archiving due to non-response. You are welcome to add a new request if you'd still like this book to be added. In that case follow the guidelines as per GR template ‘How to request a book to be added to Goodreads’ (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...).
Don't reply to this post as once it's archived it's unlikely to be read by a librarian.
