'Allende op haar best.' NRC Aan het eind van de gruwelijke Spaanse Burgeroorlog wordt de jonge arts Víctor Dalmau samen met zijn vriendin, de pianiste Roser Bruguera, gedwongen om Barcelona te verlaten en te vluchten naar Frankrijk. Met nog tweeduizend andere Spaanse vluchtelingen gaan ze aan boord van de Winnipeg, een schip dat is gecharterd door de Chileense dichter en consul Pablo Neruda, op weg naar Chili. Tot hun grote verrassing worden ze ontvangen als helden in hun nieuwe thuisland - dat 'langgerekte bloemblad van zee', in de woorden van Neruda. Ze bouwen er een nieuw leven op en worden volwaardige Chilenen. Maar in 1973 gebeurt het onvoorstelbare: er breekt een dictatuur uit en weer moeten Víctor en Roser huis en haard verlaten. 'Bloemblad van zee' is een reis door de twintigste eeuw aan de hand van onvergetelijke personages. Ze ontdekken dat een mens steeds weer aan een nieuw leven kan beginnen. Een prachtige historische roman over ballingschap en liefde.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of The House of the Spirits, this epic novel spanning decades and crossing continents follows two young people as they flee the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War in search of a place to call home. “One of the most richly imagined portrayals of the Spanish Civil War to date, and one of the strongest and most affecting works in [Isabel Allende’s] long career.”—The New York Times Book Review NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Esquire • Good Housekeeping • Parade In the late 1930s, civil war grips Spain. When General Franco and his Fascists succeed in overthrowing the government, hundreds of thousands are forced to flee in a treacherous journey over the mountains to the French border. Among them is Roser, a pregnant young widow, who finds her life intertwined with that of Victor Dalmau, an army doctor and the brother of her deceased love. In order to survive, the two must unite in a marriage neither of them desires. Together with two thousand other refugees, Roser and Victor embark on the SS Winnipeg, a ship chartered by the poet Pablo Neruda, to Chile: “the long petal of sea and wine and snow.” As unlikely partners, the couple embraces exile as the rest of Europe erupts in world war. Starting over on a new continent, they face trial after trial, but they will also find joy as they patiently await the day when they might go home. Through it all, their hope of returning to Spain keeps them going. Destined to witness the battle between freedom and repression as it plays out across the world, Roser and Victor will find that home might have been closer than they thought all along. A masterful work of historical fiction about hope, exile, and belonging, A Long Petal of the Sea shows Isabel Allende at the height of her powers. Praise for A Long Petal of the Sea “Both an intimate look at the relationship between one man and one woman and an epic story of love, war, family, and the search for home, this gorgeous novel, like all the best novels, transports the reader to another time and place, and also sheds light on the way we live now.”—J. Courtney Sullivan, author of Saints for All Occasions “This is a novel not just for those of us who have been Allende fans for decades, but also for those who are brand-new to her work: What a joy it must be to come upon Allende for the first time. She knows that all stories are love stories, and the greatest love stories are told by time.”—Colum McCann, National Book Award–winning author of Let the Great World Spin

_______________ THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER _______________ 'A powerful love story spanning generations... Full of ambition and humanity' - Sunday Times 'One of the strongest and most affecting works in Allende's long career' - New York Times Book Review _______________ On September 3, 1939, the day of the Spanish exiles' splendid arrival in Chile, the Second World War broke out in Europe. Victor Dalmau is a young doctor when he is caught up in the Spanish Civil War, a tragedy that leaves his life – and the fate of his country – forever changed. Together with his sister-in-law, the pianist Roser, he is forced out of his beloved Barcelona and into exile. When opportunity to seek refuge arises, they board a ship chartered by the poet Pablo Neruda to Chile, the promised 'long petal of sea and wine and snow'. There, they find themselves enmeshed in a rich web of characters who come together in love and tragedy over the course of four generations, destined to witness the battle between freedom and repression as it plays out across the world. A masterful work of historical fiction that soars from the Spanish Civil War to the rise and fall of Pinochet, A Long Petal of the Sea is Isabel Allende at the height of her powers. _______________ 'A masterful work of historical fiction about hope, exile and belonging' - Independent Online 'A defiantly warm and funny novel, by somebody who has earned the right to argue that love and optimism can survive whatever history might throw at us' - Daily Telegraph 'A grand storyteller who writes with surpassing compassion and insight. Her place as an icon of world literature was secured long ago' - Khaled Hosseini 'A novel not just for those of us who have been Allende fans for decades, but also for those who are brand new to her work: what a joy it must be to come upon Allende for the first time' - Colum McCann 'Allende's style is impressively Olympian and the payoff is remarkable' - Guardian 'Epic in scope, yet intimate in execution' - i

Traducere şi note de Cornelia Rădulescu Isabel Allende: 23 de cărți publicate, traduceri în peste 40 de limbi; peste 74 de milioane de exemplare vândute; 15 doctorate onorifice; peste 60 de premii în peste 15 țări; 2 filme de succes realizate după romanele sale. În 2018 a primit National Book Award, celebrându-se astfel pentru prima dată în S.U.A. o operă scrisă în limba spaniolă. În august 1939 poetul Pablo Neruda organizează plecarea din portul Bordeaux a legendarei nave Winnipeg care va duce la Valparaiso peste 2 000 de refugiați spanioli. Pornind de la acest fapt istoric, dar și din propria experiență a exilului, Isabel Allende construiește povestea medicului Víctor Dalmau și a pianistei Roser Bruguera, nevoiți să fugă din calea trupelor franchiste. Primiți cu multă căldură în Chile, acea „lungă petală de mare, de vin și de zăpadă“, după cum a evocat-o Neruda, atât Victor, cât și Roser reușesc să se integreze, dar lovitura de stat încheiată cu moartea președintelui Salvador Allende îi va forța să părăsească și această țară. Puterea de a spera și de a rezista pe care au dobândit-o în Spania tinereții lor îi va salva încă o dată. O pledoarie impresionantă pentru solidaritate, toleranță și dragoste.

New York Times and worldwide bestselling author Isabel Allende returns with a sweeping novel that journeys from present-day Brooklyn to Guatemala in the recent past to 1970s Chile and Brazil that offers “a timely message about immigration and the meaning of home” (People). During the biggest Brooklyn snowstorm in living memory, Richard Bowmaster, a lonely university professor in his sixties, hits the car of Evelyn Ortega, a young undocumented immigrant from Guatemala, and what at first seems an inconvenience takes a more serious turn when Evelyn comes to his house, seeking help. At a loss, the professor asks his tenant, Lucia Maraz, a fellow academic from Chile, for her advice. As these three lives intertwine, each will discover truths about how they have been shaped by the tragedies they witnessed, and Richard and Lucia will find unexpected, long overdue love. Allende returns here to themes that have propelled some of her finest work: political injustice, the art of survival, and the essential nature of—and our need for—love.

With nothing left and little time, they make the brave and impulsive decision to walk the 630 miles of the sea-swept South West Coast Path, from Somerset to Dorset, via Devon and Cornwall. Carrying only the essentials for survival on their backs, they live wild in the ancient, weathered landscape of cliffs, sea and sky. Yet through every step, every encounter and every test along the way, their walk becomes a remarkable journey. The Salt Path is an honest and life-affirming true story of coming to terms with grief and the healing power of the natural world. Ultimately, it is a portrayal of home, and how it can be lost, rebuilt and rediscovered in the most unexpected ways. _________ THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, WINNER OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY LITERATURE CHRISTOPHER BLAND PRIZE & SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2018 COSTA BIOGRAPHY AWARD & WAINWRIGHT GOLDEN BEER BOOK PRIZE 2018 GUARDIAN BEST BOOKS OF SUMMER 'A beautiful, thoughtful, lyrical story of homelessness, human strength and endurance' Guardian 'Mesmerising.
