The source of the narrative energy that creates such absorbing stories. Allende's very popular novels have attracted both critical approval and opprobrium, often at the expense of genuine analysis. This sophisticated study explores the narrative architecture of Allende's House of the Spirits [1982], Daughter of Fortune [1999], and Portrait in Sepia [2000] as a trilogy, proposing that the places created in these novels subvert the patriarchal norms that have governed politics, sexuality, and ethnicity. Rooted in the Foucauldian premise that the history of space is essentially the history of power, and supported by Susan Stanford Friedman's cultural geographies of encounter as well as Gloria Anzaldúa's study of borderlands, this study shows that, by rejecting traditional spatial hierarchies, Allende's trilogy systematically deterritorializes the elite while shifting the previously marginalized to the physical and thematic centers of her works. This movement provides the narrative energy which draws the reader into Allende's universe, and sustains the 'good story' for which she has been universally acclaimed.

The story of a woman - the most remarkable woman whom I have ever known - whom I loved from the first moment I saw her. It does not matter who I am, though my part in the tale will become apparent. I will simply give voice to the events which befell her, aided by her own words through extracts from her diary entries, in which her voice still rings as clear as day. For the lady is dead, and her earthly story is ended. But for you, reader, it is just beginning...'Brought to her aunt's estate to await her coming of age, the orphaned heiress Isabel Audley is eagerly planning her future. But when dark events begin to unfold she realises that her life was never her own and experience is something not always to be desired. Whisking the reader back into the depths of nineteenth-century England, Isabel Hope is a thrilling tale of danger and romance.'I was drawn into this irresistible book, with all its surprises and suspense until I couldn't put it down. Riveting!' - Caroline Laidlaw 'A truly gripping story that engages both your heart and mind through every twist and turn.' - Julie Constable 'A compelling and very human story about hope in the midst of darkness. Beautifully written.' - Jenny Morgan
Isabel of Castile, the august queen that united a fractured, war-ridden land into a unified country under a single religion and language after seven hundred years of war and domination, is the same sovereign who made it possible for discoveries as prodigious as the Americas, the matchless regent whose rule led to the ushering in of the Renaissance into Spain. And yet, her journey to the throne was far from likely.Torn away from her childhood home, the pious and observant young Isabel is brought to the debauched Court of her brother, King Enrique. But when political strife leads to civil war between her two brothers, the young princess must defy the tyrannical control of the king, escape manipulative noblemen, and save herself from being used as a pawn in an arranged marriage, in order to protect the future of her kingdom and marry the man she believes she is destined for.In Isabel of Castile: Making of a Monarch, the woman that would be hailed by the Vatican as "the Catholic Queen" maneuvers her way through the social, political and cultural milieu of patriarchal 15th century Spain, and establishes an era of justice, faith, and unity."A remarkable novel based on an intimacy with historical context, Nichole Christakes Dapelo offers a dazzling fictional account of Isabel's long journey to womanhood and queenship."--Dr. Teofilo Ruiz, Chair and distinguished professor of UCLA's Department of Spanish and Portuguese History "Isabel of Castile: Making of a Monarch is a well-written historical novel based on the adolescence and coming of age of one of the leading figures of the Spanish Renaissance. The author captures the essence and uncertainties of this turbulent transitional period in time, and recreates the key events and figures of this pivotal moment in Spanish history." --Fernando Dameto Zaforteza, Director and Professor of Humanities at Instituto de Empresa, Madrid
