In Chapter 5, I was most intrigued by Kahlo's
Without Hope painting. In reading the book you learn a lot about the personal turmoil that Kahlo dealt with and this piece of art carries a lot of weight. Looking at the picture I could sense Kahlo's pain as she's trapped down in her bed and being forced to ingest and deal with the trash of life. I think a lot of people could actually identify with this struggle, maybe not to as high a degree as Kahlo, but often times I feel that people feel trapped down by their circumstances and force fed all of these extra problems and they don't feel they are in control. Kahlo captures all of this in her picture.
