Eva Luna ~ Isabel Allende, 1987
from an ‘89 paperback copy I found this week in Lisbon.
Allende’s writing is transcendent and incredibly potent. And this brittle paperback with its handwritten message “Casa is Portugal” seems to be endowed with a kind of magic dust.

Photograph of a page from a 1989 paperback copy of the book Eva Luna written by Isabel Allende. A highlighted line on the bottoms of the page reads, “She sowed in my mind the idea that reality is not only what we see on the surface; it has a magical dimension as well and, if we so desire, it is legitimate to enhance it and color it to make our journey through life less trying.” Photograph of the pull quotes page from a 1989 paperback copy of the book Eva Luna written by Isabel Allende. The page has handwritten messages on it that read, “Fio Zara (September 1989) Casa is Portugal.” Photograph of the cover for a 1989 paperback copy of the book Eva Luna written by Isabel Allende. The cover is a color illustration of a woman with short, auburn hair holding a pen. She wears a blue dress with a gold moon pinned on the center of the neckline. Behind her is an illustration of a block print wallpaper the color of sand with large flowers to her right side, their blooms red, gold and purple.

Picture of a page from the book, the Essential June Jordan. Text in the photograph reads, “Last year the South African Minister of Justice described Anti-Government Disturbances as Part of a Worldwide Trend toward the Breakdown of Established Political and Cultural Orders. God knows I hope he’s right.”
