Description
Spanning generations and continents, this lyrical novel follows a family’s intertwined lives as love, loss, and longing ripple outward like tides. Against the backdrop of the sea—both as a physical place and a metaphor for memory—characters confront secrets, reckon with the past, and search for meaning in the stories they inherit. With Isabel Allende’s signature blend of intimate emotion and sweeping historical imagination, the book explores themes of resilience, identity, and the enduring power of hope. Rich in atmosphere and tenderness, it offers a sweeping, heartfelt journey that feels as expansive and unforgettable as the ocean itself.
