In 'The Forest of the Pygmies', Isabel Allende concludes the 'Memories of the Eagle and Jaguar' trilogy. This time, Alexander and Nadia accompany Kate to the heart of Africa, specifically Equatorial Africa, to enjoy an elephant safari. Kenya is presented as a land full of color, sensuality, flavors, smells and sounds. However, this paradise also hides shadows, and the first sign comes with the enigmatic words of a voodoo priestess, who warn them about a difficult test that will confront them with the fearsome three-headed monster.
Isabel Allende, one of the most representative voices of contemporary literature, closes with this novel the trilogy 'Memories of the Eagle and Jaguar', which began with 'The City of the Beasts' and 'The Kingdom of the Golden Dragon'. Through the eyes of Nadia and Alexander, it is discovered that man can be greedy, corrupt, evil and sinister, but also souls are known who know how to listen with the heart, who understand that respect and solidarity are the only way to walk and that they bet on a better world. A splendid novel for readers of all ages.
