«Al amigo que no me salvó la vida» is the novel by Hervé Guibert published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback, with 252 pages and text in Spanish.
Hervé Guibert turns his experience with AIDS into a fiction of invented names: he narrates the progression of the disease, the transformation of his friendships and the social treatment of the new 'plague-stricken'. Among those names, figures from European cultural life are recognisable, and the account denounces the cowardice and abuse of the medical establishment.
Original title: «À l'ami qui ne m'a pas sauvé la vie»; translation by Rafael Panizo. This edition was published in 1992.
For readers interested in contemporary French literature and in testimonies about the AIDS epidemic.
Hervé Guibert was a French writer, photographer, photography critic and filmmaker. A multidisciplinary artist, his work focused on writing, photography and film, and is closely associated with autofiction and autobiographical writing.
