PRINTER FRIENDLY VERSION
A remarkably imagined tale of four generations, much in the spirit of Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, centered on a land-owning tyrant, and his wife, daughter and grandchild. It's the first novel by Allende -- a cousin of Salvador Allende, the leader killed by Pinochet -- a sprawling work of real and imagined events that follows the extended Trueba clan from the turn of the 20th century to 1973.
