Wow. Ik heb dit echt graag gelezen.
Normaal schrikt historische fictie me een beetje af omdat ik bang ben dat het saai gaat zijn. Integendeel, Violeta is zo'n boek dat je meesleept doorheen een 100 jaar lang verhaal met personages die verschijnen en weer weggaan, en toch geraak je niet verward en ben je zo emotioneel betrokken met alles wat er gebeurt. Allende slaagt er telkens in om je mee te nemen terug in de tijd, ze legt het zó goed uit. Ik kan lofgedichten schrijven over hoe fantastisch ze het feminisme mengt in het leven van haar vrouwelijke personages. Echt gewoon meesterlijk. Ik hou van vrouwen en ik hou ervan wanneer vrouwen onderling gemeenschap en bescherming zoeken en vinden. Deze gaat me even bijblijven.
Shoutout to oma for buying it for me, fantastic rec <3
