Told in the voice of Isabel Allende’s beloved character Eva Luna, a “distinctive, powerful, and haunting” (Los Angeles Times) collection of short fiction by one of the most iconic and acclaimed writers of our time.

Eva Luna is a young woman whose powers as a storyteller bring her friendship and love. Lying in bed with her European lover, refugee and journalist Rolf Carlé, Eva answers his request for a story "you have never told anyone before" with these 23 samples of her vibrant artistry. Interweaving the real and the magical, she explores love, vengeance, compassion, and the strengths of women, creating a world that is at once poignantly familiar and intriguingly new.

Rendered in her sumptuously imagined, uniquely magical style, The Stories of Eva Luna is the cornerstone of Allende’s work. This treasure trove of brilliantly crafted stories is a superb example of a writer working at the height of her powers.

I recommend that you read Eva Luna first, although it is not necessary. The stories reference some characters from that book. These stories are quintessentially Latin American, with that fine line between this world and the next. They are deep, emotional and profound. Some of them are satisfactorily complete and others leave you needing more, in a delicious way. This is a marvelous read or listen—a treat for the soul.

The best of Allende, in short story

These stories are dull and times even pointlessly disgusting. Typically I find something intriguing to consider in her works but not feeling it here at all and the first narrator (male) was particularly bad. Not at all what I am used to from this author.

Not at all up to par with Allende’s other works.

What a wasted opportunity. Just a bunch of random pointless boring short stories anyone could write.
