A Love Letter from a Stray Moon by Jay Griffiths
5.0
Jay Griffiths has created a true portrait and merely has to call it fiction because Kahlo herself can't sign it off. When I die, I hope that someone with the skill, passion and confidence Griffiths owns will write something like this for me.
I think, as much as we can know someone, that knowing is a form of loving when you do it right. And you have to be in love, in order to accurately convey their essence to someone who cannot know them.
The text itself. Like a love letter shredded up and used as bedding. Like a poem set to the music of the cosmos.
And now for some accuracy...
Every page has something worth quoting. If you wanted to pick a quote tattoo from a book.... Steer well clear of this one! Your body will have no bare flesh left. It's scrumptious and a deeply satisfying read.
If it was about someone I had never heard about, I'd immediately go and buy every book on them that I could. As it stands, Kahlo has been an inspiration to me for a long time.
