This novel, written some years ago, has become a classic.In the 1970s there was an army coup in Chile,during which President Allende was killed. His cousin Isabel wrote this book based on what happened in the years surrounding that event. However it is a work of fiction, about several generations of one family. In spite of the serious subject, there is plenty of humour and a wealth of fascinating characters. In particular there are several strong women who manage to survive the horrors of the times.So don't be put off by the theme - read and enjoy it!
