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.

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!

This is my first BookCrossing book which was caught at
Hudson's cafe-bar in town. Started it before I went on holiay to India. Isabel Allende is a superb author with superb characterisation and period detail. Back to Hudson's when we get back.

Just caught this book today at Hudson's Coffee Shop in Plymouth. Will release it somewhere else when I've finished, so it can do a bit of travelling around.

Have had this book for a while and haven't read it, so want to set it free for someone else to enjoy.
