«The Witch of Portobello» is Paulo Coelho's contemporary novel, published by HarperCollins in paperback (297 pages, in English).
Through interviews with those who knew her, the novel reconstructs the life of Athena, an enigmatic woman who moves between Romania and London. The testimonies trace her spiritual quest and her relationship with the divine, while love, loss and self-knowledge are explored as paths towards the meaning of one's own life.
The work was originally written in Portuguese and this English edition, published in 2007, uses the translation by Margaret Jull Costa.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in spirituality, self-knowledge and characters marked by mystery.
