“Beautiful and heartrending.... Memoir, autobiography, epicedium, perhaps even some fiction: they are all here, and they are all quite wonderful." (Los Angeles Times)
In this literary classic, New York Times best-selling author Isabel Allende recalls the story of her beloved daughter and her remarkable family’s past.
When her daughter, Paula, became gravely ill and fell into a coma, Isabel Allende began to write the story of her family for her unconscious child. Bizarre ancestors are introduced; delightful and bitter childhood memories are shared; amazing anecdotes of youthful years are relived, and the most intimate secrets are quietly passed along. Like Allende’s first novel, The House of the Spirits, this powerful memoir is infused with the real, the magical, and the spiritual, creating a haunting, sad, and beautiful tale.

Absolutely brilliant

The narration was a bit monotone, but otherwise very well done. Perfect enunciation and accent, with no weird breathing or background sounds like some other productions.
The writing in this book is amazing - so beautiful and evocative. It has made me want to buy the paper version, just to be able to re-read certain passages and mark the pages.

Paula
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I’m glad that I decided to listen to it.
For the first part of the book you can feel the hope Isabel has towards the recovery of Paula, and she intertwines the story of her life, her youth. And the second part when she knows Paula won’t wake up, you can se how she gradually learns to let go, and she tells you her struggles of adult life.
I just loved it.
