Who knew? And yet, it makes so much sense. Of course, just because Rivera is mostly known as a muralist doesn't mean that he didn't also produce quite a bit of work in other mediums. Of course, I love book arts, and I assure you, this book proves Rivera was a master.

In this book Frida is seen through the eyes of the Mexican art critic Raquel Tibol, who met her a year before the artist's death. It is more a cold chronicle of Frida's life, than a novel. I think the author made an overuse of medical records, letters and journals. I couldn't find Frida in it.
