Abstract to the book "Daughter of Fortune" by Allende I.: Away from Valparaiso, away from prim English relatives trapped in the grip of stuffy customs in the middle of a bustling Chilean city, a young girl goes after an elusive, ghostly lover to the north, to California, gripped by a gold rush. A Chinese doctor, a sad widower who has lost his love, and with it his path, is wandering restlessly across the seas. One day these two will meet and help each other — and not only each other — to grow wings and find meaning again in their own lives and in the chaotic boiling of History, from which American and Chilean modernity and everything we know about personal freedom grow with blood, pain and dizzying delight.Isabel Allende is a superstar of Latin American literature along with Gabriel Garcia Marquez, one of the most famous women in South America, winner of numerous awards; her books have been translated into dozens of languages, and the total circulation is steadily approaching one hundred million copies. Allende's instantly bestselling novel "Daughter of Fortune", the prehistory of her first, deafeningly thundered novel "House of Spirits", is a saga about crossing and overcoming borders: geographical, mental, racial, class and generally any. Here, a person gradually acquires freedom — at first frightening, then necessary as air — and becomes himself.For the first time in Russian! Read more…
