Описание:
»La Bruja de Portobello» relata la vida de Athena mediante la gente que la conocia bien o que no la conocia nada. Entre ellos, su madre adoptiva, un periodista, una sacerdotisa, un historiador y una actriz. Cada persona ilustra un aspecto diferente del caracter de Athena, describiendo lo que vieron y experimentaron y tambien compartiendo sus propias impresiones, creencias e inquietudes. Edda, sacerdotisa: «El gran problema de Athena era ser una mujer del siglo XXII, viviendo en el siglo XXI, permitiendo que todos lo viesen. Pago un precio? Sin duda. Pero habria pagado un precio mucho mas alto si hubiera reprimido su exuberancia.» Andrea McCain, actriz: «No me sorprende que su vida terminara de esa manera: vivia flirteando con el peligro... Athena era consciente de su carisma, e hizo sufrir a todos los que la amaron. Incluso a mi.» Heron Ryan, periodista: «Las personas crean una realidad y despues se vuelven victimas de ella. Athena se revelo contra eso y pago un precio alto»

Описание:
The Zahir, Paulo Coelho's new novel available in paperback for the first time, incorporates exclusive new content including an extra section containing interviews with Paulo and plenty of information for those for whom the book just wasn't enough. It begins with a glimpse or a passing thought. It ends in obsession. One day a renowned author discovers that his wife, a war correspondent, has disappeared leaving no trace. Though time brings more success and new love, he remains mystified — and increasingly fascinated — by her absence. Was she kidnapped, blackmailed, or simply bored with their marriage? The unrest she causes is as strong as the attraction she exerts. His search for her — and for the truth of his own life — takes him from France to Spain, Croatia and, eventually, the bleakly beautiful landscape of Central Asia. More than that, it takes him from the safety of his world to a totally unknown path, searching for a new understanding of the nature of love and the power of destiny. With The Zahir, Paulo Coelho demonstrates his powerful and captivating storytelling.
