Produktbeschreibung
A novel that breaks prejudices and borders by telling the adventures of a couple spiritually close to Stefan Zweig -an intellectual who embodied pan-Europeanism and respect for the other until his suicide. Here exoticisms are valid from any shore of "lo real maravilloso" because the kingdom of this world swims or drowns in the Orinoco or the Danube. The counterpoint between the Diary of the Austrian and the Cuban opens the curiosity for the unusual and rare enigma that unites them. Caribbean mixture in reverse, towards the lost steps that Edith von Kekesfalva began in the transalpine Engadin Valley and for Federico Lafargue after leaving Santiago de Cuba and disembarking in Hamburg. Later discoveries seem to indicate that the story of the central characters extends far beyond what Zweig relates. Edith von Kekesfalva's life is interwoven with that of her mixed-race Cuban husband, Federico Lafargue, from the moment she meets him in Paris in 1921, when they were two strangers from lost kingdoms: Austria-Hungary and the Caribbean.
