Wow. The House of Spirits was really astounding, enjoyable beyond belief, and marvellously well-written. It has to be the most canonical example of magic realism I've read since The Satanic Verses, although it lacks the almost dizzying intricacy of that book. I'm adding The Stories of Eva Luna to my reading list to see what Isabel Allende can do with short stories, and have high hopes.
