In 'Viva', Patrick Deville transports us to the Mexico of 1937, a political and cultural hotbed where characters such as Leon Trotsky, Frida Kahlo, and Malcolm Lowry intersect. Through a concise and seductive narrative, Deville traces a map of our world through figures touched by genius and madness, adding to his cycle of narrative journeys through the world and history, which also includes 'Peste & Cólera' and 'Ecuatoria'.
This river novel introduces us to Tina Modotti, Sandino, B. Traven, Antonin Artaud, Diego Rivera, André Breton, and Graham Greene, among others, in search of a dream and an ideal. With a prose that bubbles and pulsates, Deville invites us to reflect on political idealism and the cult of literature, demonstrating his literary mastery on every page.
