The Promised Party
Kahlo, Basquiat and Me
Jennifer Clement
'Clement has lived a life like no other, and made of it a shimmering mosaic, a masterpiece, which is this book' Andrew Sean Greer, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Less
Growing up in 1970s Mexico City, Jennifer Clement lived next door to Frida Kahlo’s house. It was a bohemian childhood, living alongside artists, communists, revolutionaries and poets, which allowed an awakening of creative freedom and curiosity about the world.
Leaving behind Latin America for the burgeoning counter-culture scene in ’80s New York, Clement inhabited the world of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Colette Lumiere and William Burroughs. Spanning two great cities, The Promised Party explores what it means to be young, free and alive.
