The Witch of Portobello
''The Witch of Portobello'' ((ポルトガル語:A Bruxa de Portobello)) is a fiction work by Brazilian writer Paulo Coelho published in 2007, about a woman born in Transylvania to a Romani mother in a gypsy tribe without wedlock. The central character is abandoned by her birth mother because the father was a foreigner ''(gadje)'' and later adopted by a wealthy Lebanese couple.

It starts with the death of the main character, Sherine Khalil or Athena as she likes to call herself, and is represented as a form of biography in narrative format. It contains short chapters which include the points of view of the people who knew her well– a journalist who fell in love with her, an actress who was her disciple and had a love- hate relationship with her, a doctor who was also her protector and teacher, a numerologist who did not know her personally, her adoptive mother, her ex-husband, a priest who was once her only friend, her landlord, a manager of bank for which she initially worked as a clerk, a teacher of calligraphy, a gipsy restaurant owner who takes her to her real mother, her real mother, and a historian. The author decided to transcribe what these people told him because he didn't want to impose his own opinions on the reader. Each one of them provides a different view of her, describing not only what they saw and experienced but adding their own impressions, interpreting her through their own beliefs and fears.
