LA Casa De Los Espiritus / House of the Spirits

Isabel Allende`s compelling magical-realist saga about the Trueba family in Chile is a political and social history of the country, as well as a powerful novel of family relationships. The novel revolves around the lives of the larger-than-life patriarch Esteban, his elusive wife Clara, their rebellious daughter Blanca, and Blanca`s out-of-wedlock child Alba, who leads the family into the future.
