On a personal scale, Violeta by Isabel Allende is about love, betrayal, loss, joy, and every emotion that encompasses a woman's life. One a broader scale, Violeta is about a hundred years of Chilean history. What makes this book work is the main character. The first person narration, even in letters looking back, places me as the reader in the heart of the story with all the emotion that entails.
