Description: Eva Luna era una cascada de cuentos contados a traves de otros cuentos. Pero el caudal estaba lejos de haberse agotado. En la cama con su amante, Eva Luna es requerida por este para que le cuente un cuento "que jamas haya contado antes". Y la improvisada Sheherezade no cuenta una sino veintitres vidas en las que el amor, el odio, la venganza, lo grotesco y lo sublime se superponen y empujan unos a otros en su afan por completar todo el registro de sentimientos posibles en el alma humana.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONTold in the voice of Isabel Allende's beloved character Eva Luna, a "distinctive, powerful, and haunting" (Los Angeles Times) collection of short fiction by one of the most iconic and acclaimed writers of our time. Eva Luna is a young woman whose powers as a storyteller bring her friendship and love. Lying in bed with her European lover, refugee and journalist Rolf Carle, Eva answers his request for a story "you have never told anyone before" with these twenty-three samples of her vibrant artistry. Interweaving the real and the magical, she explores love, vengeance, compassion, and the strengths of women, creating a world that is at once poignantly familiar and intriguingly new. Rendered in her sumptuously imagined, uniquely magical style, The Stories of Eva Luna is the cornerstone of Allende's work. This treasure trove of brilliantly crafted stories is a superb example of a writer working at the height of her powers.
