Here is patriarch Esteban, a man whose love for his ethereal wife Clara—a lady touched by a spirit from another world—is the only thing that restrains his wild passions and cunning political maneuvering. Their daughter Blanca, who her father finds infuriating because of her forbidden love for a man Esteban believes to be worthless, will provide him the greatest happiness of all: his granddaughter Alba, a beautiful and driven young woman who will lead the family and their nation into a revolutionary future.
A captivating tale spanning decades and lives, The House of the Spirits weaves together the political and personal to create an epic book about destiny, magic, and love.
