À propos de cet audio

 New York Times and worldwide bestselling author Isabel Allende returns with a sweeping novel that journeys from present-day Brooklyn to Guatemala in the recent past to 1970s Chile and Brazil that offers “a timely message about immigration and the meaning of home” (People).

During the biggest Brooklyn snowstorm in living memory, Richard Bowmaster, a lonely university professor in his sixties, hits the car of Evelyn Ortega, a young undocumented immigrant from Guatemala, and what at first seems an inconvenience takes a more serious turn when Evelyn comes to his house, seeking help. At a loss, the professor asks his tenant, Lucia Maraz, a fellow academic from Chile, for her advice.

As these three lives intertwine, each will discover truths about how they have been shaped by the tragedies they witnessed, and Richard and Lucia will find unexpected, long overdue love. Allende returns here to themes that have propelled some of her finest work: political injustice, the art of survival, and the essential nature of—and our need for—love.

I love her books! But this one I must say was boring. The story was slow and just didn’t hold my attention. I couldn’t wait for it to end.

I love this author but this book wasn’t as engaging as several of her others. I didn’t really get drawn in to the story and didn’t care that much about the characters. I thought of stopping but ploughed through. It never got better so for me, this lacks the ingenious storyline, creative premise and wonderful characters that other books from Allende have.

Okay not great
