PATRICK DEVILLE AT ALLIANCE FRANÇAISE OF HYDERABAD:
“[In Viva] Deville introduces a heady cast of characters: Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, Lázaro Cárdenas, Tina Modotti, Antonin Artaud, John Dos Passos, B. Traven, Rosa Luxemburg, Osip Mandelstam, Victor Serge, Larissa Reisner, André Breton, Leon Trotsky, Malcolm Lowry, and many more. It is the latter two, Trotsky and Lowry, who interest Deville most particularly. On the face of it, they make for a singularly incongruous pair. Yet Deville sees real, rare genius in both, as well as a will to pursue things to their end regardless of the odds, and an unflinching devotion to an absolute—in the one case revolutionary, in the other literary.” – The French Review
Meet this enigmatic author who has sought to revolutionise the very structure of novel by employing various literary devices.
