‘Lush.’ Sunday Times

‘Superb.’ Daily Mail

‘Elegantly written.’ Telegraph

This is the heartbreaking story of a man torn between the warm heart of Mexico and the cold embrace of 1950s America in the shadow of Senator Mc-Carthy.

Born in America and raised in Mexico, Harrison Shepherd starts work in the household of Mexican artists Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo – where the Bol-shevik leader, Lev Trotsky, is also being harboured as a political exile – he inadvertently casts his lot with art, communism and revolution. A compul-sive diarist, he records and relates his colourful experiences of life with Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo and Trotsky in the midst of the Mexican revolution. A violent upheaval sends him back to America; but political winds toss him be-tween north and south.

The Lacuna is the unforgettable story of a man caught between two worlds. It is both a portrait of the artist-and of art itself.
