This book is a documentary biography. The author, a classic of modern French literature, Jean-Marie Leclezio, strictly adhered to the facts, but the life and love story of two outstanding artists of the 20th century, Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, is more fascinating and dramatic than any fiction. Their affection for each other, despite the striking dissimilarity of characters, their creativity, in which they, each in their own way, were inspired by the ancient and original culture of Mexico, the historical events in which they were involved - all this cannot leave anyone indifferent.< /p>
