Description

The Lacuna is divided into two parts: the first highlights a vibrant Mexican landscape with figures like Rivera, Kahlo, and Trotsky, while the second focuses on Harrison's reclusive life in small-town America and his conflict with the House Un-American Activities Committee. Critics favored the Mexican section for its lyrical prose and vivid depiction of the 1930s, though some noted instances of sermonizing and historical inaccuracies.
