"Presents the peculiar crossroads where love and imagination meet politics and history. . . . A great miscegenating carnival of ambition and desire." -Lee Siegel, The New York Times Book Review "One of America's most significant living novelists . . . inspiration to writers and readers alike." -Claire Messud, Bookforum"Deep imagination, stylistic verve . . . A serious work by a serious artist. It just might strike you as a masterpiece." -Michael Dirda, The Washington Post "Goldman is a maximalist, and his challenging novel of love, migration, class, and corruption shows off a gratifying literary dexterity." -Tom Miller, The Los Angeles Times "The Divine Husband tells a soulful story about love-from the religious to the romantic. . . . A brave and big-hearted book." -John Freeman, Orlando Sentinel "His best. . . . At wonderful moments . . . Goldman's book demonstrates that the dream of the Great American Novel is still alive." -Alan Cheuse, The Chicago Tribune "A level of writing, very rare, that takes your breath away . . . an alchemist's brew of history, fiction and legend." -Lisa Jennifer Selzman, The Houston Chronicle "An intricately wrought tale, a book that takes all kinds of risks with storytelling." -Beth Kephart, The Baltimore Sun "Ebullient, mischievous, and sensual . . . multifaceted, brilliantly satirical tale . . . conjures the very spirit of humankind in all its perfidy and splendor." -Donna Seaman, Booklist "Hilarious, tender, magnificent." -Susan Choi, The Believer "Brave and bighearted . . . this novel reminds us what it feels like to experience love for the first time." -Time Out New York
Reseña del editor
One of the most talented and award-winning writers of his generation, Francisco Goldman's third novel, The Divine Husband, appeared to wide and rapturous acclaim. Beginning with a single, possibly scandalous love poem by Jose Marti, Cuba's greatest revolutionary-poet-hero with an infamous secret love life, The Divine Husband is the story of Maria de las Nieves Moran, a former nun forced out of her convent by a revolution in a Central American capital. While making her way in this metropolis nicknamed "The Little Paris," she enrolls in a writing class taught by Jose Marti, under whose spell Maria de las Nieves and her classmates quickly fall. Soon after, Maria de las Nieves flees her home for New York, where Marti has also relocated -- a crucial interval that shaped Marti's consciousness. Nearly a century later, an elderly woman in Massachusetts hires a college student to investigate her claim that she is the illegitimate offspring of Marti and Maria de las Nieves. Mixing a lovingly re-created historical past with often hilarious, ironic, and moving conjecture that brings to life an unforgettable heroine and her remarkable collection of friends, nemeses, and rival suitors, The Divine Husband is a magnificent American novel.
