<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>House of Mist </i>stands as one of the first South American novels written in the style that was later called magical realism. Of this story of a young bride struggling with her marriage to an aloof landowner--and the mysteries surrounding their life together--in a house deep in the lush Chilean woods, Penelope Mesic wrote in the <i>Chicago Tribune </i>that Bombal showed bold disregard for simple realism in favor of a heightened reality in which the external world reflects the internal truth of the characters' feeling . . . mingling . . . fantasy, memory and event. <p/>One of the most outstanding representations of the avant-garde in Latin America. -<i>Women Writers of Spanish America</i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Maria Luisa Bombal (1910-80)</b> was a Chilean novelist and short story writer. Among her other novels is <i>The Shrouded Woman.</i></p>
