by Isabel Allende is a sweeping historical epic that follows the life of Violeta Del Valle , a woman whose century-long journey is bookended by two global pandemics: the Spanish flu of 1920 and the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. Written as a long letter to her grandson, Camilo, Violeta recounts her experiences with political upheaval, economic ruin, and personal transformation in an unnamed South American country (widely understood to be Chile).
