What is The news from Paraguay : a novel about?

"For him it began with a bright blue parrot feather that fell from Ella Lynch's hat when she was horseback riding in the Bois de Boulogne. The year was 1854, and Francisco Solano Lopez - "Franco," the future dictator of Paraguay - began his courtship of the young, beautiful Irishwoman with a poncho, a Paraguayan band, and a horse named Mathilde." "From Paris, Ella Lynch follows Franco to Asuncion, where she reigns as his mistress. Isolated and estranged in this new world, she embraces her lover's ill-fated dream - one fueled by outsize imperial ambition and heedless arrogance, and with devastating consequences for Paraguay and all its inhabitants."--BOOK JACKET.
