Isabel Allende
Set in Anglophile Chile and goldrush California during the middle years of the nineteenth century, this magnificent romance tells the story of English foundling Eliza Sommers who grows up in the bustling entrepot of Valparaiso. Eliza is a spirited, sparky and ambitious romantic who becomes embroiled in a forbidden love affair with the charismatic but capricious Joaquin Andieta. When he disappears suddenly for California, and the promise of riches that rumours of gold strikes have brought him, she can but follow after him...
Good escapist fiction.

Caro1 kindly released this book on my behalf during the Unconvention05 since I couldn't be there. Thanks very much, and happy reading to the next bookcrosser!
Caught at the BC UK Unconvention.
I'm starting an OBCZ in Plymouth and thought this would be a great book for it.
Thank you!
