Translated from the Spanish by Pamela Carmell. 216 pages. hardcover. Cover: Francisco Goya-'The Naked Maja'. keywords: Latin America Uruguay Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION - On July 23, 1802, the Duchess of Alba, one of Spain's most beautiful and notorious ladies, died in her bed at the age of forty. To this day, her death remains a mystery. Was she poisoned by Manuel Godoy, first minister to the royal family and her sometime lover? Or did she die by the hand of Francisco Goya, court painter of humble origins, whose affair with the Duchess shocked Spanish society? Perhaps it was suicide, prompted by her fading beauty and her addiction to the 'powder of the Andes.' Did the Queen, whose jealous venom knew no bounds, have a hand in the Duchess's end? Or did Prince Fernando, whose bid for the throne became the ruin of Spain, take part in the crime? Written in the form of a personal memoir by Godoy, the official who was charged with investigating the affair, this daring historical novel brings to life the drama and intrigue of eighteenth-century Madrid while it focuses on the mysterious death of one of the city's great femmes fatales. Confidante and lover to several aristocrats, including Godoy, the Duchess had scandalous affairs with men beneath her rank, the most famous of which was a long-term Liaison with Goya, who immortalized her in his best-known works. We hear the fictional voices both of Godoy, now enduring a lonely political exile in Italy, and of Goya, living out his remaining years in Bordeaux, as they narrate their differing versions of the events surrounding Alba's death. With the fine observation of a great artist, Goya describes the noblewoman who tormented him in his passion-seductive, impulsive, manipulative, ravishing. And Godoy, glancing back on his days of glory shapes the facts to fit his preferred version of history. Each has his own, equally believable, notion of what occurred that night. But who knows what really happened in this crime with no witnesses? Only a letter, received decades after the event, provides the answer. inventory #10247.
