Una inolvidable historia de amor y de guerra protagonizada por una mujer que, enfrentada a los mayores desafíos, sobrevive y se reinventa.

San Francisco, 1866: una monja irlandesa, embarazada y abandonada por un aristócrata chileno tras una apasionada relación, da a luz a una niña a la que llama Emilia del Valle. Criada por su cariñoso padrastro, Emilia se convertirá en una joven brillante de gran personalidad, autónoma e independiente, que desafiará las normas sociales de su tiempo para profesar su verdadera pasión y vocación: la escritura.

Con tan solo diecisiete años, publicará novelas de aventuras bajo un pseudónimo masculino. Pero, enseguida, su mundo ficticio se le quedará pequeño y decidirá optar al puesto de periodista que se le ofrece en el periódico local para vivir de cerca la realidad.

Tiempo después, se le presentará la oportunidad de viajar como corresponsal a la ferviente guerra civil en Chile y no dudará en tomarla. Junto al avezado periodista Eric Whelan, Emilia se encontrará una nación en quiebra, al borde del abismo. Mientras cubre el conflicto bélico entre el presidente Balmaceda y el congreso rebelde, aprovechará la estancia en el país para explorar sus vínculos con la familia Del Valle y poder, al fin, conocer a su padre.

Sus reportajes la situarán en el centro de la guerra, soportando situaciones de terrible violencia en el campo de batalla, en el hospital de sangre y en la cárcel, donde varias veces se debatirá entre la vida y la muerte. Al tiempo, vivirá -y sufrirá- el amor y conocerá también, entre bosques, lagos y volcanes, una tierra donde no llega el horror de la guerra y donde, tal vez, acabe descubriendo no solo su destino sino su propia identidad.

Una cautivadora e inolvidable historia de amor y de guerra, de descubrimiento y redención, protagonizada por una mujer que, enfrentada a los mayores desafíos, sobrevive y se reinventa. Emilia del Valle es desde ya un personaje inolvidable del universo más fértil de Isabel Allende, la saga Del Valle, que empezó con su obra maestra La casa de los espíritus y continuó con Hija de la fortuna y Retrato en sepia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

In this spellbinding historical novel from the New York Times bestselling author of A Long Petal of the Sea and The Wind Knows My Name, a young writer journeys to South America to uncover the truth about her father--and herself.

In San Francisco in 1866, an Irish nun, abandoned following a torrid relationship with a Chilean aristocrat, gives birth to a daughter named Emilia del Valle. Raised by a loving stepfather, Emilia grows into an independent thinker and a self-sufficient young woman.

To pursue her passion for writing, she is willing to defy societal norms. At the age of seventeen, she begins to publish pulp fiction using a man's pen name. When these fictional worlds can no longer satisfy her sense of adventure, she turns to journalism, convincing an editor at The Daily Examiner to hire her. There she is paired with another talented reporter, Eric Whelan.

As she proves herself, her restlessness returns, until an opportunity arises to cover a brewing civil war in Chile. She seizes it, as does Eric, and while there, she meets her estranged father and delves into the violent confrontation in the country where her roots lie. As she and Eric discover love, the war escalates and Emilia finds herself in extreme danger, fearing for her life and questioning her identity and her destiny.

A riveting tale of self-discovery and love from one of the most masterful storytellers of our time, My Name Is Emilia del Valle introduces a character who will never let hold of your heart.

Wide and comfortable office chair
Color: Black, Style: Classic, Color: Black, Style: Classic
It's made of very fine leather and in good quality. It has a pump to pump air to the back of the chair, so I can adjust the softness of the chair back. It's a very wide chair. Maybe the widest one I ever bought. I can only sit half of its space. It's very easy to install, the alignments are perfect. Its arm and height is adjustable. The wheels are advance ones which make it move through the floor smoothly. It looks an advance chair if you want an upgraded experience.

Excellent Comfort and Great Value for a Home Office
Color: Elegant Grey, Color: Elegant Grey
I am extremely happy with this office chair and feel it offers excellent value for the price. The chair was easy to assemble, and all the parts fit together perfectly. Once assembled, it feels sturdy, stable, and well-made. The high-back design provides outstanding support for my back, neck, and shoulders. The seat cushion is thick and comfortable, making it easy to sit for long periods while working, studying, or gaming. The padded headrest adds extra comfort, and the faux leather material looks stylish and gives the chair a premium appearance. One of my favorite features is the flip-up armrests. They are comfortable to use and make it easy to slide the chair under my desk when I need extra space. The height adjustment, smooth swivel, and rocking function all work well and allow me to find the perfect sitting position throughout the day. The chair arrived exactly as described and exceeded my expectations in both comfort and appearance. It looks great in my home office and has made long work sessions much more enjoyable. If you're looking for a comfortable, attractive, and affordable office chair, I highly recommend this product. I would definitely purchase it again and would gladly give it five stars.

Comfortable and Stylish Office Chair
I’ve been using this chair for my home office, and it’s been very comfortable. The high back provides good support, and the lumbar support helps reduce strain during long hours at my desk. The leather looks nice and gives the chair a professional appearance. I really like the flip-up armrests because they make it easy to slide the chair under the desk when not in use. The rocking function is a nice feature for relaxing during breaks, and the chair rolls and swivels smoothly. Overall, it’s a comfortable, well-made office chair that looks great and provides excellent support for everyday work.
