Santa Evita (FORMATO GRANDE, Band 730014)

For some, Evita was a goddess, a queen, and a patron mother; for others she was a social climber, and a crazy and ordinary analphabet; her body is the protagonist of this novel. This book tells the impressive and absurd story of the peregrinations of Evita's perfectly embalmed corpse across oceans and in and out of Peronists' hands. ?A superb craftsman, Mr. Martinez moves through stories of Evita's life and death ?and the peregrinations of her body? with a dazzling array of literary devices, including imagined interviews and memoirs, even fake screenplays.... he affirms his place among Latin America's best writers.? ?The New York Times Book Review
