Synopsis
West's narrative takes on all of Mexican history, from the conquest by Spain and the Mexican Revolution, to the muralist movement, and explores the inner lives of such figures as Cortes, Montezuma, the Reclus brothers, Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, Dr. Atl and Leon Trotsky. Highlighting contradictions and paradoxes in the personal and public spheres, she offers insights into Mexican art and culture as well as human culture and destiny.

Review
'...a significant addition to West's canon and an important piece of literary salvage work'. -- Observer, 20 July 2003
'a...delirious mix of history, travel memoir and metaphysics'. -- Geoff Dyer, Daily Telegraph, 19 July 2003
'scrupulously edited...far more than a piece of literary archaeology...a fine book about a wonderful but impossible country'. -- Tom Rosenthal, Daily Mail, 8 August 2003
