VAZ, Katherine - Mariana
In seventeenth century Portugal, Mariana de Alcoforado, a nobleman's daughter and a nun since the age of eleven, shocks the convent by having an affair with a French soldier. When the scandal breaks, Bouton is immediately ordered back to his regiment. Mariana, devastated by her loss, writes extraordinarily beautiful and passionate letters to which she never received a reply.
Mariana is based on the true story of one of Europe's most famous tales of seduction and abandonment.
