The Japanese Lover
by Isabel Allende



Staff Pick by Powell's Books

A delicious summer read from one of my favorite storytellers — The Japanese Lover spans several generations and a cast of characters reckoning with self-reflection, societal expectations, trauma, and aging. Allende is an expert at weaving together the colorful cast of characters and unmasking their secrets with each turn of the page.

Fans of The House of Spirits and other Allende works will recognize the themes of love and unrequited love, reconciliation and fate, through thoughtful storytelling and a touch of magical realism. The Japanese Lover is a delightful read. Recommended By Kate L., Powells.com
