La fascinante novela de Isabel Allende, 'Largo pétalo de mar', nos transporta a través de la historia del siglo XX. En plena Guerra Civil española, el joven médico Víctor Dalmau y su amiga pianista Roser Bruguera se ven obligados a exiliarse, cruzando los Pirineos hacia Francia. A bordo del Winnipeg, un barco fletado por el poeta Pablo Neruda, emprenden un viaje hacia Valparaíso, Chile, en busca de paz y libertad. Recibidos como héroes, se integran en la sociedad chilena hasta el golpe de Estado que derroca a Salvador Allende. A través de personajes inolvidables, Allende explora temas de desarraigo, esperanza y el eterno retorno de la vida.
