Most well known for her novel The House of the Spirits, Allende settles into another female-focused epic, offering a fictional autobiographical account of author Violeta Del Valle's life. With her life bookended by the 1920s Spanish flu and COVID, Valle reflects on a century of love, femininity, and political upheaval, drawing readers in with Allende's signature whimsical writing style and sweeping family sagas.
