Den Norske Bokdatabasens omtale:
Historien om hovedpersonen i denne boka, Athena, blir fortalt av mennesker som kjente henne. Hver og en tegner ulike sider av Athenas karakter, basert på sine egne overbevisninger og bekymringer. Temaet som går som en rød tråd gjennom boka er: hvordan vi kan finne mot til å være tro mot oss selv, når vi ikke en gang vet hvem vi er.

Forlagets omtale:
Paulo Coelho, one of the world‘s best loved storytellers, is back with a riveting novel tracing the mysterious life and disappearance of Athena dubbed ‘the Witch of Portobello‘, which was a top ten Sunday Times bestseller in hardback. This is the story of Athena, or Sherine, to give her the name she was baptised with. Her life is pieced together through a series of recorded interviews with those people who knew her well or hardly at all - parents, colleagues, teachers, friends, acquaintances, her ex-husband. The novel unravels Athena‘s mysterious beginnings, via an orphanage in Romania, to a childhood in Beirut. When war breaks out, her adoptive family move with her to London, where a dramatic turn of events occurs...Athena, who has been dubbed ‘the Witch of Portobello‘ for her seeming powers of prophecy, disappears dramatically, leaving those who knew her to solve the mystery of her life and abrupt departure. Like The Alchemist, The Witch of Portobello is the kind of story that will transform the way readers think about love, passion, joy and sacrifice.
