In my post 3-0 is STARING me in the Face! I mentioned that I wanted to read all of Isabel Allende's books.
In case you don't know she is a Chilean writer and most of her books (if not all) have women as main characters. She is a great story-teller and so are many of her protagonists.
I just finished reading Eva Luna today and I plan on starting Cuentos de Eva Luna (The Stories of Eva Luna) next since you kind of have to read them together.
Here's a list of the works of Isabel Allende (I've put the books that I've read already in bold). You can find the English titles online:
The House of the Spirits (La casa de los espíritus) -- I read this book in English as a child. It is one of my favorite books, period.
Inés of My Soul (Inés del alma mia) -- I also read this book in English
El Zorro: comienza la leyenda
Eva Luna
La isla bajo el mar -- I started this book awhile back but just couldn't bring myself to finish. It was just too depressing...and long. Maybe I'll try again.
