"Carla Arnone, an embittered seventy-year-old American woman with terminal cancer, escapes from a hospital in Mexico with the help of "the kid," an abandoned ten-year-old boy. A journey of revenge and murder, this unlikely duo's wacky road trip provides the setting for this powerful story of reflection, The Colors of Memory.".
"Carla's deep memory is guided by an acute awareness of colors and her hastening retreat from reality is tinged with painful disappointments. She recollects an unhappy childhood when her father, an FBI agent, wrung confessions out of Hollywood studio executives during the McCarthy era.
She recounts her brief, but intense, love affair with a mysterious fisherman and watch thief, Dmitri, whose life story she believed would provide her with material for her magnum opus, her unfinished masterpiece."--BOOK JACKET.
