Eva Luna is a novel written by Chilean novelist Isabel Allende in 1987 and translated from Spanish to English by Margaret Sayers Peden.Eva Luna takes us into the life of the eponymous protagonist, an orphan who grows up in an unidentified country in South America. While the country's political history, traced through several decades of the mid-20th century, bears many similarities to Chile (the author's original nationality), the geography and social context of the story depict a society more similar to Venezuela (where she was exiled for over a decade). The novel takes us through Eva Luna's journey through life so far and her ability to tell stories, interweaving Eva's personal story with the broader geopolitical turmoil of Latin America during the 1950s – 1980s.

Review of 'Eva Luna' on 'Goodreads'

This is another very engaging story by Isabel Allende. Eva Luna has been an orphan since her early childhood and by the time she comes of age, has lived several different lives. A gifted storyteller who can weave together many pasts and futures, she eventually discovers meaning and purpose for her talents, as well as a family of her own.
I found this story and its characters fascinating, with its touch of magical realism and realistic chaos. Most of the story takes place in an undisclosed country in South America, sometime in the late 1960's, I believe. The variety of cultures and the political warfare of the times make a compelling backdrop for Eva's story.
This was a good read!
