Oscar, a Mexican writer I'd never heard of, contacted me online for a meeting. He simply specified that it concerned my father. I was intrigued because he had been dead for over twenty years. So, he said, I discovered that your father had a romantic relationship with Frida Kahlo when she came to Paris in 1939.

Marc Petitjean sheds new light on the only Parisian stay of Frida Kahlo, a committed, non-conformist, bisexual artist, rediscovered by feminists in the United States and Europe in the 1980s.
Who was this singular Michel Petitjean whom she loved? What was their story, in the company of André Breton, Pablo Picasso, Dora Maar and Marcel Duchamp? And why did she give him this painting? The Heart , enigmatic and so intimate?
The strength of this relationship, like Frida Kahlo, runs through the entire book like a mysterious ray of light.
