Sumptuous... Eva Luna is a tale that spans forty years and moves from a surreal jungle to a modern-day urban capital where even the most apolitical are driven to risky antigovernment activities... Allende's canvas is large, busy, full of feeling, incident and rich detail... Her humor can be endearingly ironic. |

Remarkable... a cascade of stories tumbles out before the reader, stories vivid and passionate and human... Allende seems to draw characters and tales from a bottomless well as Eva Luna narrates the story of her life. |
