Completing the trilogy that includes her bestselling novels Daughter of Fortune
and The House of the Spirits, Portrait in Sepia is a stunning novel about memory
and family secrets
Set at the end of the nineteenth century, Portrait in Sepia is a richly imagined
historical novel featuring the colorful and intrepid del Valle family.
The protagonist, Aurora del Valle, suffers a brutal trauma that shapes her
character and erases from her mind all recollections of the first five years of
her life. Raised by her ambitious grandmother, the regal and commanding Paulina
del Valle, she grows up in a privileged environment, free of the limitations
that circumscribe the lives of women at that time, but tormented by horrible
nightmares. When she is forced to recognize her betrayal by the man she loves,
and to cope with the resulting solitude, she decides to explore the mystery of
her past.
