Most Important Relationship
Elena Poniatowska
Well, it has evolved. It’s a very strong relationship first of all, because my mother was Mexican, and because I arrived here when I was 10 years old. So, it’s the relationship — the most important relationship that I have with a country, because it’s a country I’ve lived in. I’ve lived here — well, it’s my country, first of all. It’s the only country I have, even though I could have been French, because I was born in France and my family on my father’s side is French, but my family on my mother’s side is Mexican.
