    <![CDATA[In this extraordinary and unusual book, Jennifer Clement explores the turbulent relationships that Jean-Michel Basquiat had with his muse Suzanne Malouk and with the art establishment. The result is a distressing yet beautiful profile of a strange, powerful love striving to flourish in the face of horrendous outside pressures. And while Suzanne held firm, Basquiat sought refuge in a fatal heroin addiction. Widow Basquiat also presents an eye-witness account of the drug-fueled insanity of the New York art scene of the 1980s.]]>

    <![CDATA[A True Story Based on Lies is a remarkable first novel that addresses the universal issues of class discrimination, male oppression, and female servitude through dual narratives of spellbinding power. Set in contemporary Mexico, the book charts the consequences of a sexual relationship between Leonora, a servant in the wealthy O'Connor home, and her master. When a child, Aura Olivia, is born from this union, she is brought up as the daughter of the house. As the novel unfolds, the &quot;true&quot; story gradually emerges. As compassionate as it is profound, A True Story Based on Lies delivers the same emotional impact as Toni Morrison's astonishing debut, The Bluest Eye.]]>

    <![CDATA[A remarkable and original novel, A True Story Based on Lies addresses the universal issues of class discrimination, male oppression, and female servitude through dual narratives of spellbinding power. Set in contemporary Mexico, the book charts the consequences of a sexual relationship between Leonora, a servant in the wealthy O'Connor home, and her master. When a child, Aura Olivia, is born from this union, she is brought up as the daughter of the house. As the novel unfolds, the &quot;true&quot; story gradually emerges. Clement writes with an understated, poetic rhythm that has a hypnotic effect upon the reader. Compassionate and profound, A True Story Based on Lies delivers the same emotional impact as Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye. It is the recipient of the Systema Nacional de Creadores, a grant awarded in Mexico to those seen to be making outstanding contributions to literature. Previous recipients include Carlos Fuentes and Octavio Paz. &quot;Clement's simple lilting prose-poetry belies a dark complexity ... and draws the reader on to the book's chilling conclusion.&quot; -- The Times (London) &quot;A lyrically told, deeply moving tale.&quot; -- The Sunday Tribune (Dublin) &quot;A bold and innovative novel ... Clement employs poetry's ability to mirror thought, to build a picture of Leonora's interior world.&quot; -- Times Literary Supplement (London) ]]>
