The Invisible Mountain by Caro De Robertis
4.0
This is a marvelous book!
Spanning almost 100 years, "The Invisible Mountain" is the tale of one family in Uruguay as seen through the eyes of three generations of women. Carolina De Robertis weaves in political history, immigration issues, the US economy and its effect on Uruguay, all while keeping the story deeply intimate and gripping.
In many ways, reading this book reminded me of my first experience reading Isabel Allende. An amazing first effort book - can't believe it hasn't received more press.
