"My name is Chavela Vargas. I am ninety years old. I have lived because there is so much to live for, so much to love, I can shout that I am alive, like life, like the color red, like the red thoughts that taste like bread." This is an emotional testimony of an extraordinary woman. It chronicles an existence characterized by the fires of passion, nonconformity, and rebellion. Chavela Vargas puts on these pages her eventful, long, and rocky journey, and she does so with an open heart. The friends, the loves, the alcohol, the torments of the heart, the untiring efforts to be herself, the awards, the tributes, and above everything else, her interpretations--that searing and sincere song in which you can see the true depth of the human condition.
