Violeta

A Novel

Violeta Del Valle is born in South America in 1920, during the Spanish flu pandemic, and lives through a century of political and social upheaval. The novel follows her family, loves, losses, and changing fortunes from the Great Depression through later twentieth-century crises. Told as a letter to someone close to her, it traces how one woman's personal life intersects with the history of her country and era.
