From one of Latin America's finest writers comes a mesmerizing novel about the life of the legendary Eva Perón, the famed wife of an Argentine dictator, told backwards from death to childhood. Eva Perón was the poor-trash girl who reinvented herself as a beauty, snared Argentina's dictator, reigned as uncrowned queen of the masses, and was struck down by cancer. When her desperate but foxy husband brings Europe's leading embalmer to Eva's deathbed to make her immortal, the fantastical comedy begins.
