Die Geschichte der alteingesessenen Familie del Valle setzt zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts in Chiles scheinbar wohlgeordneter Welt ein und reißt uns mit in einem Strudel politischer Umbrüche und Gewalt, der die persönlichen Schicksale unaufhaltsam bestimmen wird. Der Erfolg dieses Epos verdankt sich dem hinreißenden Erzähltemperament Isabel Allendes: Mit Phantasie, Witz und mit Zärtlichkeit malt die Autorin das bunte Tableau einer Familie über vier Generationen hinweg. Ihr erster Roman hat Isabell Allende zu einer Schriftstellerin von Weltrang gemacht.
