The heartbreaking final volume in Sergio Pitol’s groundbreaking memoir-essay-fiction-hybrid "Trilogy of Memory" finds Pitol boldly and passionately weaving fiction and autobiography together to tell of his life lived through literature as a way to stave off the advancement of a degenerative neurological condition causing him to lose the use of language. Fiction invades autobiography?and vice versa?as Pitol writes to forestall the advancement of degenerative memory loss.
Sergio Pitol, the greatest living Mexican writer, winner of the Juan Rulfo and Cervantes prizes, is profoundly influential to the current generation of Mexican writers, including Valeria Luiselli and Yuri Herrera.
