Sinopse

Isabel Allende's first novel set in the United States during the turbulent 1960s, The Infinite Plane is a dense and passionate story of a man searching for his own identity, love, and acceptance.

Exploring for the first time a reality far removed from the South American universe so familiar to her, Isabel Allende takes the reader to California in the second half of the 20th century, following in the footsteps of two families: that of the preacher Reeves, who travels the West announcing an Infinite Plan that justifies human existence; and that of the Morales, Mexican immigrants living in a Hispanic neighborhood marked by violence.

Gregory Reeves grows up amid poverty and neglect. When he realizes that the future can only lie far from the Hispanic neighborhood where he lives, he sets out in search of something better. The Infinite Plan his father spoke of so often seems more real than Gregory would like to believe, and everything unfolds as if destiny were preordained, with no way for him to avoid the succession of bad choices that affect his life.

After a failed marriage, the Vietnam War, the loss of a friend, and witnessing the deaths of so many, Gregory returns to his past, learning nothing from his mistakes. Only later, when he is forced to face reality, does he begin to realize that his destiny depends solely on himself, and that the Infinite Plan may, after all, still be open.

In The Infinite Plan , Isabel Allende addresses complex issues such as immigrant life in the United States, racial discrimination, religious fanaticism, the American way of life, drugs, and salvation through psychoanalysis. According to Isabel Allende herself, The Infinite Plan reveals that the important thing is to unite people, not to discriminate against them based on ethnic, social, political, and racial barriers.
