Here's what I wrote about this read in 2008: "Frida Kahlo brought to life from the perspective of her sister's tale. What a woman, interesting artist, and fastinating historical figure. An artist with pain both deep inside and outwardly visible. From amazon.com online review: 'Otherwise, this is a tremendously involving, extravagantly sensuous, and imaginatively detailed and interpretative portrait of a fascinating and influential artist who lived a purposefully theatrical life while suffering profound traumas of the body and soul.' " ( ) I've been a fan of Frida Kahlo for over ten years now. I've read her biography [b:Frida: A Biography of Frida Kahlo|91767|Frida A Biography of Frida Kahlo|Hayden Herrera|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1407108642s/91767.jpg|88533] and have seen the movie too. I enjoyed this fictional account of her life. It didn't tell me anything that I didn't already know. I did enjoy though. I liked that the story was told by her younger sister, Cristina. It wouldn't have been easy, having Frida as an older sister. I enjoyed it and would recommended it to anyone that is a Frida Kahlo fan. Cristina, younger sister of the famous Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, is talking to her psychiatrist. In telling her story, she recounts the relationship between Frida and herself from childhood through adulthood as well presenting a picture of her home and family life. It’s not that this story is well written or close to the truth, but rather it’s the way that it’s told. What an interesting point of view! The author must have had a wonderful time thinking up the psychological relationship between the bizarre painter Frida Kahlo and her younger sister who ended up having an affair with Frida’s husband, the renowned Mexican muralist Diego Rivera. What fun to think about and present Cristina’s story! This is an entertaining read which will bring about in its readers a desire to learn more truth about the life of “Frida” and seek nonfiction books to bring this unusual woman to life sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

And yet she went on to fall in love with and marry another star of the art world, muralist Diego Rivera. filled with passion, jealousy, and deceit, their story captured the world's imagination. Told in the voice of Frida's sister Cristina, who bears witness to Frida and Diego's tumultuous marriage, this is a brilliantly vivid work of historical fiction. What unfolds is an intense tale of sibling rivalry, as both sisters vie for Rivera's affection. Mujica imbues the lives and loves of these remarkable characters with sparkling drama and builds her tale to a shattering conclusion. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
