A heartfelt novel, powerful enough to make a dictator cry * Evening Standard *
She can spin a tale out of a pebble and a piece of string.. the atmosphere of encroaching doom, buried treasure and broken hearts is never tragic because there is a continual sense of life's endless opulence * Independent *
Packed with action, prodigal in invention, vivid in description and metaphor, this cleverly plotted novel is enhanced by its flowing prose and absolute assurance * The Times *
Allende's world is both sweet and sinister, and the flamboyance and power of her vision can seduce the sourest and most literal-minded reader * Daily Telegraph *
