Isabel Allende is a superstar of Latin American literature along with Gabriel Garcia Marquez, one of the most famous women in South America, winner of numerous awards, author of books translated into dozens of languages and published with a total circulation that is steadily approaching one hundred million copies. Allende's new novel, inspired by the life of her mother, opens a giant multicolor panorama. Before us is the story of a passionate and strong woman who can laugh no matter what - a heroine truly epic. The story begins with a Spanish flu epidemic, ends with a coronavirus epidemic, and in between unfolds Violeta's long life, her hundred years without loneliness. In this life there will be prosperity and poverty, dizzying loves and murderous disappointments, terrible losses and stunning delights, new births, the inevitability of death, and inevitable wisdom. The 20th century - the Great Depression, wars, the rise and fall of tyrants, the struggle for women's rights - will imprint on the fate of Violet, born one night during a storm and living a tumultuous life to the bottom from the first to the last minute, from pandemic to pandemic. Allende turns the private life of an individual into a grandiose saga, inspiring when hopes are exhausted and inspiring when it is difficult to move on without inspiration.
