Born in Spain and of humble origins, Inés travels to the New World in search of her husband, without suspecting that he has died in battle. She crosses the ocean by boat and, on that journey, meets the one who will be the great love of her life: Pedro de Valdivia, who is married under all laws in Spain. The lovers will challenge the strict moral of the Crown and will undertake an adventure that will end up in the foundation of Santiago de Chile. Narrated with the passion and talent of Isabel Allende, Inés del alma mía is one of the most outstanding works of Latin American literature.
