Acerca de esta escucha

Frida Kahlo was ahead of her time. She was bisexual and would have fit in perfectly in the time we live in now. Her disabilities would be acceptable in our society of today and her husband, Diego would probably be run out of town by the Real Housewives of “Cheaters”.

Frida came with a lot of baggage in her life starting when she was only six years old and even more baggage piled on when she was in high school. Her suffering was more than anyone can imagine but she kept her head held high and forged her way forward.

Inside you’ll hear about:

  • Frida’s birth and family
  • Frida and Diego begin their life together
  • Diego’s First Fight with Penile Cancer
  • Frida’s lovers
  • Frida was rotten to the core
  • A lifetime of Frida’s creations
  • A medical doctor’s perspective on Frida

And much more!

If Frida had not had a unibrow, waxed her upper lip, and shaved under her arms, she may have appeared more feminine than she did, and it may have given her more self-confidence. She never gave herself a chance because she felt it was her job to be the boy in the family.

I chose this title because I wanted some info on Frida Kahlo and it was an hour or so long. However, after the first 15 minutes, I had to stop listening. I went back for another 15 minutes but couldn't bring myself to finish. The writing is mediocre and juvenile and reads like a list of facts poorly strung together with no coherent story. Speculation runs rampant and much of the "story" includes her family and not her. Please pick a different book.

Like others have said, it's poorly written

This reads like a encyclopedia entry where facts are loosely strung together by chronological and the author comments only in platitudes. It honestly reminds me of a student work and not a scholarly source. I learned some interesting facts but would have preferred something with more depth.

Shallow Biography and Platitudes

This book bounced around which was whatever but the ending all of a sudden suggested atheism had some connection with infidelity and made assumptions about loss of pregnancies so yeah, no gross.

What the

Author starts off the book as sexist as possible, providing a scathing review of Frida and Diego’s personal appearance. The book then goes on to discuss all the rough parts of her life, medical history, etc for about 6 chapters and then discusses her death with several chapters remaining in the book.

The flow is horrible, and any insights you want to gain into the person that was Friday Kahlo are not to be found here.

Awful. Don’t buy this.

I've had this book on my wish list for a long while and I was not disappointed when I finally bought it. Well researched, well written and lots, I mean lots, of photographs of Frida, Rivera and Frida's art. A pleasure.

Good one

I got the impression that the author did not like Frida. They took someone who is amazing and had a fascinating life and made it boring somehow and constantly shamed her. It is also poorly written, the choice of timeline and story telling was absurdly confusing and only served to constantly dig at her in a very biased way

NOT A BIOGRAPHY

This reads like a mix between a middle school essay and gossip magazine. The author sounds like a mean-girl type teenager, has no art background or art education and can’t seem to get past Frida’s appearance, even at one point suggesting she should have waxed her facial hair so that she could have been happier in life?! The organization is awful as well and goes back and forth in timeline inserting random quotes and observations. Don’t waste your time or money on this.

Terrible!

The author begins the book with so many prejudices like (I'm paraphrasing here) "Frida was ugly but could have had any man she wanted, I cannot fathom how!" The biography definitely did add to what I already knew about Frida Kahlo but is no way in-depth and provides no insights whatsoever. I have no qualms in suggesting to skip this book.

Poorly written

I wanted to learn more about Frida after finishing Kingsolver’s The Lacuna. This story of Frida is terribly written and impossible to listen to.
