"In this work on the Nobel Prize-winning Mexican author, Elena Poniatowska, the friend, the artist, the journalist, gives us the intimate Paz...but also compiles some of the most illuminating interviews that they built between them about the poet's work and thoughts. A loving testimony but a no less analytical one, essential to know Octavio Paz and the historical and intellectual context of the Mexico that he has given life with his work."
