THEMA Society and culture: general
Synopsis More than a book, this object is a carnival of fifty seasons that parades behind the scenes of Mexican culture. Tin Tan and Pita Amor, María Félix and Monsiváis, Piporro and Tongolele, Nahui Olin and Jorge Ibargüengoitia the generation of the beats, and Marilyn Monroe, Vitola and José Revueltas, among many others. As they pass by, they tell us about their vices, superstitions, their quarrels and nicknames, their affairs and the cabarets they visited. Guided by Julia Santibáñez's insatiable curiosity, we find out who were guests at Lecumberri and who were invited to Carlos Fuentes' house; which writers played the role of actors and which books and films enjoyed the reverse marketing of censorship and why. Find out here what ceremonious books will never say about writers, artists and intellectuals.
