Bøger om Miami

Fra en af verdens største forfattere kommer fortællingen om Violeta del Valle, en kvinde hvis liv bærer vidne til de største begivenheder i det tyvende århundrede.Violeta kommer til verden på en blæsende dag i 1920 som den første datter i en familie med fem højlydte sønner. Fra begyndelsen tegnes hendes liv af store begivenheder, da den spanske syge rammer hendes hjemlands kyster i Sydamerika, mens familien stadig mærker efterdønningerne af første verdenskrig. Men selvom familien slipper igennem denne krise uden mén, venter der store forandringer, da Den Store Depression rammer og berøver Violetas slægt alt, hvad de ejer. De tvinges til at flytte langt ud på landet til en smuk, men øde egn. Her vokser hun op, og en dag kommer hendes første bejler til familiens hjem. Violeta fortæller sin historie gennem et brev til en, som hun elsker højere end nogen anden. Heri beskriver hun både knuste hjerter og passionerede kærlighedsaffærer, fattigdom og velstand, forfærdelige tab og stor lykke. Kampen for kvinders rettigheder, tyranners storhed og fald, livstruende sygdom, kærlighed og krig – alt sammen er det en del af fortællingen, der udgør Violetas liv. Med Violeta er Isabel Allende tilbage i episk, storslået form.

A grieving man meets a beautiful woman on a desolate beach. He doesn't know she knows who murdered his wife. She doesn't know he possesses a secret that will expose her sinister plan. Neither knows they are about to become fugitives together.
