Mi primera lectura del 2023 y este libro me ha parecido fascinante. Clara se convirtió en mi favorita, acompañada de las mujeres extraordinarias que conocemos a lo largo de esta historia. Sin duda Isabel Allende ahora forma parte de mis escritoras favoritas y este un libro que leería una y otra vez.
