This is a brief fictional biography of Frida Kahlo, told entirely from inside her own mind, focusing mostly on her relationship with Diego Rivera, and her chronic illnesses. Drakulić and I don‘t have the same vision of Frida, but I can tell this story was incredibly well crafted because instead of dismissing it I found myself alternately questioning my own vision, and arguing with the author inside my head. #bookspin

TrishB Interesting 👍🏻 one of my fave pics on the cover. 8mo
zezeki I read this last year, and loved it. And I'm always so glad to see Littens reading Croatian authors. ☺️ 8mo

IndoorDame @zezeki I couldn‘t find info about the translator, but this is one I found myself wishing I could read in the original language 8mo

Didn't know one of my favorite authors wrote a book about one of my favorite artists. Clearly, to me, the combination was fantastic. Kahlo and Drakulić are like soul sisters from different time periods and countries. They both speak the language of pain.
