Title: Wonderful!
Review: Isabel Allende is a wonderful, magnetic author. Zorro is a must read (or hear via audio). Beginning with Zorro's childhood Allende develops a magnetic character in a hero-in-process. Zorro's life and development into a folk hero take us into many vibrant "historical" situations, and we meet marveious and intriquing characters in the Native Americans of California, the gypsies of Spain, pirates of New Orleans and just plain rogues of early California. Like the other Allende books I've read, Zorro moves quickly; it was very hard to "put down." I listened to the audio version and shared it with three others who thought it equally marvelous. The print version was purchased for my grown son who was completely swept up in the story. I will read Zorro again some day.
