Review: Frida: ¡Viva La Vida! Long Live Life!

Frida: ¡Viva La Vida! Long Live Life! by Carmen T. Bernier-Grand
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A biographical look at the life of Frida Kahlo through the poetry of Carmen T. Bernier-Grand alongside some of Khalo's paintings. Frida Kahlo endured hardships and physical trauma due to polio and injuries from a bus accident, along with a troubled marriage. Kahlo expressed her pain through her paintings. Bernier-Grand tells Kahlo's story through poems that also express this pain and suffering as well as her appreciation for life. This is a quick read, but it captures Kahlo's heart and soul.
