"Violeta" by Isabel Allende
Â
"In this novel of two pandemics, Allende weaves contemporary issues including depression, racial inequality, and political corruption with the aftermath of the Spanish Flu in the early 20th century and the mostly tragic events of the life her main character, Violeta del Valle, as shared with her grandson, Camillo. An entertaining masterpiece."--Neel, Main Library
