'Fantastic, sexy and sometimes macabre. A latter-day Scheherazade, a true descendant of the skalds, a Teller of Tales. Extraordinary' Guardian Eva Luna, entwined with her lover in bed, is asked to tell him a story 'you have never told anyone before'. As she relates a tale of twenty-three interwoven parts, she knits a kaleidoscopic portrait of the people and landscape of South America.

These are stories of poverty and politics, passion and pain, tragedy and comedy, all gloriously imagined by one of the world's most captivating storytellers. 'Like a plate of hors-d'oeuvres, each one tempting, some as exquisite as caviare. Stunning' New York Times Book Review'Vital and compelling' The Times'Enchanting, magnificent. Absolute magic on every level' Cosmopolitan
