review:
'Violeta: Corazon Maldito' by Virginia Tonfoni with art by Alessio Spataro is a graphic novel that tells the story of a musical artist from Chile.
2017 was the centennial birthday of Violeta Parra, a poet, artist and musician. Her story starts with the parent that inspired her to pursue music, mainly as a way to raise money for an impoverished family. Her life was filled with tragedy, travel and some fame.
The problem I had with this graphic novel was that it jumps forward in time with little consequence and characters have died or disappeared. It lacks a narrative structure for the reader to learn anything about Violeta Parra. I wasn't crazy about the art either.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Harper Europe Comics and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
