Cambio de Piel. [A Change of Skin].

First edition of this work which defines existentially a collective Mexican consciousness by exploring and reinterpreting the country’s myths. Octavo, original wrappers. Association copy, lengthily inscribed by the author to his close friend Sergio Munoz on the front free endpaper, "A Sergio, companero en todas los barricadas, es tu invitacion a exlorar ris ___ - tematicamente el ruindo de la "muerte climatizada" seamos realistias: sonemos lo imposible un gran abrazo de Carlos London 1968." Fuentes met Munoz in Mexico in the 1960's when he was dating the daughter of Fuentes' first wife, actress Rita Macedo.  Carlos and Sergio bonded one night as they discussed the merits of one of Balzac’s novels. From there, they continued to be very close friends over the years, seeing films together, discussing literature, politics, art, and music, and enjoying food, wine, and life. Sergio Muñoz Bata writes a weekly syndicated column published in 18 newspapers across 11 countries in the hemisphere. He is also both a former Los Angeles Times editorial board member and Executive Editor of La Opinión. In very good condition. A wonderful association.
