About the Author Enrique von Kiguel taughtanatomy at Georgetown Universitys School of Medicine for several years. Hehas traveled extensively in Europe, and maintains homes in the United States and Europe. He lives in Orange, Virginia. Product Description This complex and richly layered novel follows a young, gay doctor from Santiago, Chile, to Paris in the late 1950s. Fleeing the repressive, closed society of his native Chile, he is drawn toFrance by the promise of freedom, culture, and romancewithan attractive but married Frenchman. They begin a passionate affair in Paris, and the Frenchman promises to leave his wife but cannot bring himself to do so. When the Chilean expatriate begins a liaison with the wife of his French lover, complications multiply with tragic results. The elegant voice of the protagonist echoes through this refined and romantic milieu set against a backdrop of grandeur and faded glory. An intriguing cast of impoverished aristocrats, business elite, and art patrons inhabit the wistful narrative based loosely on the authors youth. Review Illustrations of the author and various characters and locations are included, without the names changed, further enhancing the memoir quality. Generic distinctions aside, von Kiguel tells an affecting story about a sensitive mans search for fulfillment. Booklist
