“Trotsky’s final exile in Mexico was one of solitude, the world of his
concerns an ocean away. He wrote in profusion, analyzing and responding
to events of gigantic magnitude, but his milieu, the revolutionary
generation of Bolsheviks, were wiped out by Stalin. And then Trotsky was
assassinated.
“Imagine now that Stalin’s assassin missed his mark, and Trotsky was
whisked off to Tijuana, the southern border of San Diego, but still in
Mexico, to live out his days, alive but even more remote. That is the
premise of Dan La Botz’s riveting historical novel, a ‘what if’ immersed
in Left Oppositionist thought and praxis that convincingly creates an
alternative reality. La Botz masterfully weaves the history, politics
and people into a gripping tale with twists and turns that are no less
amazing than the history itself. You won’t be able to put it down, and
you’ll argue with it long after.”
– Suzi Weissman, author of /Victor Serge: A Political Biography/
“I anticipated that this book would be a fun read and it was. The
versatile Dan La Botz imparts an enormous quantity of political history
while inventing some fictional but intriguing characters and situations,
all combined in a smooth-flowing and accessible fashion.”
– Alan Wald, author of /The Literary Left in the Era of the Cold War./
