"This novel narrates the trajectory of one of last century’s most famous bullfighters, El Cordobés. The interesting point in the narrative of the book is the interpolation of the great bullfight in Madrid—where he will receive what is called the ‘alternativa’ (that is, become a fully fledged bullfighter)—with the story of his life and of the bullfighting culture."

Sarah Betts (103 KP) rated The Trial of Lizzie Borden in Books

Dec 31, 2019

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher file in exchange for an honest review.

Cara Robertson dug really deep into the Borden trial. The details are exquisitely laid out from beginning to end. not only is this book a fascinating look at the trial itself but also the culture of the time.

"Cinematic candy. You want to eat, sing, and dance in the Carnival of Rio de Janeiro. The colors and fabrics, the language and music and people and culture, are all so vibrant and beautiful. The story is a retelling of the Greek tale of Orpheus and Eurydice, done with such beauty and imagination. This is one for the ages"

"Joseph Polisi is the President of the Juilliard School and one of the men I admire most. His beautiful book is a call to arms for all artists, and those who love the arts, to use their talents for the larger good of our culture, our communities, and our world. A must read for anyone in the arts."
