Based on a true story, “Defiance and Redemption, A Lifetime of Unbroken
Bonds,” brings to life the joys, dramas, and triumphs of two sisters, Eva
and Victoria Alisio and their loyal friend Marta. The sisters are raised by
their atheist Grandfather Marcus and religious Grandmother Maria Luisa. Eva,
a proud and strong-willed young woman defies her family, society, and
culture, and faces scandal and disgrace, for her actions but chooses
self-determination over patriarchal dominance. The young women’s bond of
love, humor and perseverance, carries them through ordinary and
extraordinary losses, triumphs, and ultimately to their destiny in the
United States.

An important novel about 20th Century women in Ecuador, South America, the
events are as relevant today as they were one hundred years ago. Defiance
and Redemption, is an absorbing epic that moves through decades and
destinies. It blends personal and historical events into a collective tale
of self-determination, love, and sisterhood.
