Isabel Allende is a superstar of Latin American literature alongside Gabriel Garcia Marquez, one of the most famous women in South America, a recipient of numerous awards, and the author of books translated into dozens of languages with a combined circulation that steadily approaches one hundred million copies. "Eva Luna" (1987) and "The Stories of Eva Luna" (1989) are her early works about the ultimate importance of stories in this world. Generals, scientists, guerrillas, an unrecognized saint, bandits, the circus owner, inhabitants of the ghost palace... "Eva Luna" is a tale about a storyteller, a novel about an orphan, a servant, a factory worker, a screenwriter, a woman with a tumultuous biography and a wild imagination. For the sake of everything human in her and in us, she weaves tales, blurring truth with fiction, and the suffering find solace in her "Stories" - a dizzying carnival whirlwind where love and faith, insane coincidences and wild passions, much sadness, laughter, plenty of blood, and all the elements that stories are usually made of, pass before us. Here speaks Eva Luna - Oliver Twist, Scheherazade, and Baron Munchausen, a trickster, a stumbling block, a perceptive witness who will extend a helping hand or simply, with a curious gaze, remember, preserve the memory, and then tell about what she saw. "The Stories of Eva Luna" are being published in Russian for the first time.
