Frida: A Novel of Frida Kahlo
Frida: A Novel of Frida Kahlo | Barbara Mujica
6 posts | 5 read | 1 reading | 8 to read
Frida Kahlo, painter and cultural icon, lived a life of extremes. The subject of an Academy Award(c) nominated film starring Salma Hayek, Kahlo was crippled by polio and left barren by an accident when she was a teenager. 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.

There's a museum in my city featuring a Frida Kahlo exibit, so I thought I'd read this before checking it out.

A historical fiction novel on the life of Frida, written from the point of view of her younger sister Christina.

vivastory Nice! Frida Kahlo is one of my favorite artists of all time. Enjoy! 7y

You said it, not me. But seriously, I don't get it. And it wasn't just Frida, he has TONS of lovers! I mean I understand that he was immensely talented, but he had to charismatic AF as well. Also, I'm not sure they had a very healthy relationship, so I have a hard time getting on board for that reason too. To each thier own though. I would like to have met them both back in thier heyday. So fascinating and iconic. 👨🏻‍🎨👩🏻‍🎨🇲🇽

Picked up a book today for my daughter. It was one of those "I didn't know it existed but it is perfect" out of the blue finds. I think she will love it.
