Eva Luna is a novel written by Chilean novelist Creator/IsabelAllende in 1985 and translated from Spanish to English by Margaret Sayers Peden.
According to Website/TheOtherWiki, Eva Luna takes us into the life of the eponymous protagonist, an orphan who grows up in an unidentified country in South America. While the country's political history, traced through several decades of the mid-20th century, bears many similarities to Chile (the author's original nationality), the geography and social context of the story depict a society more similar to Venezuela (where she was exiled for over a decade).
