40 years ago, when he lived in Venezuela, Isabel Allende began to write a letter to his dying grandpa over everything he had left behind in Chile after the coup d’etat.
That letter ended up becoming the house of the spirits, the first of the almost 30 novels that have turned Allende into one of the most read writers around the world.
She now returns with violet (Plaza & Janés), another novel-letter that runs through the conquests of the woman in the twentieth century.
‘Violeta’ (Plaza and Janés) is already on sale.
