y de un hombre que se amaron en plenitud, salvándose así de una existencia vulgar.
Segunda novela de Isabel Allende, De amor y de sombra es un agudo testimonio de las dramáticas situaciones que se viven en ciertas regiones de América Latina, al tiempo que un canto de amor y de esperanza. Con ternura e impecable factura literaria, Isabel Allende perfila el destino de sus personajes como parte indisoluble del destino colectivo de un continente marcado por el mestizaje, las injusticias sociales y la búsqueda de la propia identidad. La crítica ha dicho...
«La gente que aparece en el libro es tan real, sus triunfos y derrotas son tan fieles a la verdad de la existencia humana, que vemos el mundo en miniatura. Es precisamente esa la tarea de la ficción.
The Washington Post ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
This profoundly moving tale of love, bravery, and tragedy by New York Times bestselling author Isabel Allende brings to life a country ruled with an iron fist--and the men and women who dare to challenge it.
Irene Beltrán is a force to be reckoned with. As a magazine journalist, an unusual profession for a woman with her privileged upbringing, she is constantly challenging the oppressive regime. Her investigative partner is photographer Francisco Leal, the son of impoverished Spanish Marxist émigrés. Together, they are an inseparable team and--despite Irene's engagement to an army captain--form a passionate connection. When an assignment leads them to uncover an unspeakable crime, they are determined to reveal the truth in a nation overrun by terror and violence. Together, they will risk everything for justice--and, ultimately, to embrace the passion that binds them.
