Synopsis "Después de Vivir un Siglo"

La primera biografía completa de la cantante y poeta chilena en el centenario de su nacimientoMucho se ha dicho y escrito acerca de Violeta Parra. Pero,¿fue realmente esa campesina pobre del sur de Chile que llegó al estrellato universal contra viento y marea? ¿Por qué recién a los 35 años comienza a existir la Violeta que todos conocemos? ¿Cómo surgieron sus canciones de protesta que se adelantaron a su tiempo hasta volverse himnos globales? ¿En qué circunstancias compuso «El Gavilán»? ¿Por qué y cómo se suicidó en febrero de 1967Estas y muchas otras interrogantes se contestan en esta biografía escrita por Víctor Herrero, quien investigó exhaustivamente los archivos legales y la prensa de la época y recogió durante dos años testimonios desconocidos # incluidas las memorias inéditas del gran compañero de Violeta, Gilbert Favre#, al tiempo que recorrió los mismos senderos que caminó Violeta en Chile en los años 50, siguiendo también su senda en Buenos Aires, París y GinebraHerrero logra reconstruir a la mujer detrás del mito, a la mujer que logró convertirse en mito.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThe first complete biography of Chilean poet and Singer Violeta Parra to commemorate the hundred years since her birth. A lot has been said and written about Violeta Parra, but was she really that poor country girl from the south of Chile who reached international fame against all odds? Why was it only until age 35 that we begin to know her as the Violeta we all know? How did she first think of those protest songs that she wrote so ahead of their times until becoming world anthems? How did she write her emblematic "El Gavilán"? How and why did she take her own life in February 1967?These and many other questions are answered in this biography by Victor Herrero Aguayo, who exhaustively researched local archives and newspaper clippings of that time, and for two years collected never-before-read testimonies, including the unpublished memoir by Violeta's partner Gilbert Favre. At the same time, he traveled through where Violeta had traveled in the 50s in Chile and abroad in Buenos Aires, Paris, and Geneva.The author successfully recreates the woman behind the myth, the woman who managed to become a myth.
