They evoke Popular Front France, the fall of Paris, the 'Surrealist Château' in Marseilles, and the flight to the New World. They are replete with vivid life portraits (Gide, Breton, Saint-Exupéry, Lévi-Strauss), and moving evocations of fallen revolutionary comrades (Gramsci, Nin, Radek, Trotsky) and of doomed colleagues among the Soviet writers (Fedin, Pilniak, Mandelstam, Gorky). Serge's Mexican notebooks provide a fascinating account of his exploration of pre-Columbian cultures and portray political and cultural figures in Mexico City, from the exiles' psychoanalytic circle, to painters like Dr. Atl and Leonora Carrington and poets like Octavio Paz. These writings paint a vivid self-portrait and convey the intense loneliness Serge also felt in these years, cut off as he was from Europe, deprived of a political platform, prey to angina attacks, and anxiously in love with a younger woman"-- |cProvided by publisher. 504 Includes bibliographical references. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 600 10 Serge, Victor, |d1890-1947 |xTravel |zMexico. 600 10 Serge, Victor, |d1890-1947 |vNotebooks, sketchbooks, etc. 600 17 Serge, Victor, |d1890-1947. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00005307 650 7 Travel. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01155558 651 7 Mexico. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01211700 655 7 Autobiographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 Notebooks, sketchbooks, etc. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423820 655 7 Autobiographies. |2lcgft 655 7 Fiction. |2lcgft 655 7 Notebooks. |2lcgft 700 1 Albertani, Claudio, |eeditor. 700 1 Rioux, Claude, |eeditor. 700 1 Abidor, Mitchell, |etranslator. 700 1 Greeman, Richard, |etranslator. 776 08 |iOnline version:Serge, Victor, 1890-1947. |tNotebooks. |dNew York : New York Review Books, [2019] |z9781681372716 |w(DLC) 2018054439 830 0 New York Review Books classics. 852 0 |bscstacks |hPQ2637.E49 |iA2 2019
