Madiq, website designerEmile Gauguin repeatedly told his cousin, Maria Elena, he was a failure. A famous father was the cause. He just could never measure up.Still he remained a proud, engineer-adventurer-warrior leading rebel combatants, cheating death in the northern Andes, constantly searching for work on three continents, continually facing financial collapse, fighting off hunger as a homeless transient in the American Great Depression, having to deal with three colossal marital breakups and reconciliations.And yet, suddenly, at his life’s darkest hour, most likely suicidal, when he wrote his cousin, detailing page-after-page his pathetic existence … almost as a miracle … his life two thirds over … changed to one of happiness and peace."Loved reading this ... the story, the flow." Jonas Gauguin, great-grandson.
