New York Times and worldwide bestselling “dazzling storyteller” (Associated Press) Isabel Allende returns with a sweeping novel about three very different people who are brought together in a mesmerizing story that journeys from present-day Brooklyn to Guatemala in the recent past to 1970s Chile and Brazil.

In the Midst of Winter begins with a minor traffic accident—which becomes the catalyst for an unexpected and moving love story between two people who thought they were deep into the winter of their lives. Richard Bowmaster—a 60-year-old human rights scholar—hits the car of Evelyn Ortega—a young, undocumented immigrant from Guatemala—in the middle of a snowstorm in Brooklyn. What at first seems just a small inconvenience takes an unforeseen and far more serious turn when Evelyn turns up at the professor’s house seeking help. At a loss, the professor asks his tenant Lucia Maraz—a 62-year-old lecturer from Chile—for her advice. These three very different people are brought together in a mesmerizing story that moves from present-day Brooklyn to Guatemala in the recent past to 1970s Chile and Brazil, sparking the beginning of a long overdue love story between Richard and Lucia.

Exploring the timely issues of human rights and the plight of immigrants and refugees, the book recalls Allende’s landmark novel The House of the Spirits in the way it embraces the cause of “humanity, and it does so with passion, humor, and wisdom that transcend politics” (Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post). In the Midst of Winter will stay with you long after you turn the final page.

Isabel Allende is one of the most widely read authors in the world, having sold more than seventy-seven million books. Born in Peru and raised in Chile, Isabel won worldwide acclaim in 1982 with the publication of her first novel, The House of the Spirits. Since then, she has authored more than twenty-six bestselling and critically acclaimed books, including Daughter of Fortune, Island Beneath the Sea, Paula, and The Wind Knows My Name.

In 1996, following the death of her daughter, Paula, Allende established a charitable foundation in her honor. The foundation has awarded grants to more than one hundred nonprofits worldwide, delivering life-changing care to hundreds of thousands of women and girls.

In 2014, President Barack Obama awarded Allende the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor, and in 2018 she received the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters from the National Book Foundation. Allende lives in California.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wunderbares Buch - bewegend und unterhaltsam
Reviewed in Germany on July 31, 2023
Verified Purchase
Gerade hab ich das Buch abgeschlossen und es sehr gern gelesen. Früher schon hab ich die Bücher der Autorin verschlungen, aber sie irgendwie aus den Augen verloren...

Allende schreibt hier zwar über dramatische und grausame Zeiten in der Militärdiktatur und traurige Ereignisse in der Vergangenheit der drei Protagonisten, schafft es aber, in der Gegenwart wunderbar zu unterhalten. Drei Personen, die über Zufall und wahrscheinlich Schicksal verbunden sind und ein Abenteuer bestehen müssen...

Ein Buch, das Hoffnung gibt, nach allen erlebten Traumata zum Trotz, das Glück und die Liebe zu erfahren.

4.0 out of 5 stars Eine Geschichte, die von Rückblenden lebt
Reviewed in Germany on April 15, 2021
Verified Purchase
Das Cover ist ansprechend, der Klappentext ebenso, der Titel schien mir am Ende doch eher irreführend.
Auch wenn die Vorleben der drei Protagonisten durchaus interessant waren, konnte mich das Buch nicht ganz überzeugen. Stellenweise erzeugte Spannung wurde durch lange Rückblenden unterbrochen. Wenn die Rückblenden an sich auch interessant waren, ergaben sie in Summe kein harmonisches Ganzes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unvergängliche Eindrücke

Dieser Roman erzeugt Spannung wie ein Krimi, Nachdenklichkeit wie eine politische Recherche , aber auch Lächeln und Heiterkeit, ist menschlich und warmherzig.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ein wenig mühsam, dafür ohne Sommer
Reviewed in Germany on November 21, 2020
Verified Purchase
Die Geschichte entwickelt sich etwas mühsam und es brauchte etwas Durchhaltevermögen.
Was sich mir bis zum Ende nicht erschlossen hat: "Ein unvergänglicher Sommer" als Buchtitel. Weder erzählt die Geschichte etwas von Sommer noch spielt sie im Sommer.
Von Isabell Allende habe ich schon besseres gelesen. Schade.

4.0 out of 5 stars Das Migratiosproblem
Reviewed in Germany on November 23, 2019

Das Buch ist sehr aktuell. Arme Leute suchen s.g. besseres Leben manchmal auf lebensgefährlicher Weise. Aufklärung über Gefahren und Möglichkeiten in einem neuen Land zurecht zu finden wäre a gebracht.
