A Century of Passion Through One Woman's Eyes
Born in 1920 as the Spanish flu ravages her South American homeland, Violeta del Valle enters the world as the first daughter after five sons in a wealthy family. Her birth coincides with unprecedented mortality-bodies pile in streets while privileged families like hers retreat behind locked gates. Her father Arsenio, a financial visionary with questionable ethics, has fortified their estate with armed guards and stockpiled supplies. The family mansion, Camellia House, stands as a symbol of faded glory-a sprawling property acquired through payments Arsenio eventually stopped making, like many of his business dealings. Violeta grows spoiled and unmanageable until Miss Josephine Taylor arrives-not the matronly English governess expected, but a stylish American with modern ideas who transforms Violeta through patience and innovative teaching. More importantly, she quietly exposes her to progressive ideas about women's rights that will shape Violeta's worldview throughout her extraordinary life.
