To Selena, with Love - Chris Perez
She was one of the most compelling
and adored superstars in Latin music history, Selena was nothing short
of a phenomenon who shared all of herself with her millions of devoted
fans up until the heartrending day on the 31st of March 1995 when her
life was tragically cut short by Yolanda Saldívar, Selena's former fan
club president and clothing boutique manager, with whom she was breaking
ties, persuaded the singer to meet with her secretly. Saldívar then
shot and killed Selena, provoking massive public outcry from the
Hispanic community. Saldívar claimed that in an attempt to end her own
life she accidentally shot Selena, but the jury at her trial did not
believe her; she was sentenced to life imprisonment. Her tragic murder,
at the young age of twenty-three, stripped the world of her talent and
boundless potential, her tightly knit family of their beloved angel, and
her husband, Chris Perez, of the greatest love he had ever known. Now
all of those saddest moments are being told in an intimate and
compelling way by none other than the author Chris Perez who used to be
the husband of the late Tejano music diva Selena Quintanilla-Pérez
in a just released biography affectionately titled To Selena, with
Love. For over a decade, Chris held on to the only personal thing he had
left from his late wife: the touching and sometimes painful memories of
their very private bond. Now, for the first time, Chris opens up about
their unbreakable friendship, forbidden relationship, and blossoming
marriage, which were cut short by Selena’s unforgivable death.
Chris’s powerful story gives a rare glimpse into Selena’s
sincerity and vulnerability when falling in love, strength and
conviction when fighting for that love, and absolute resilience when
finding peace and normalcy with her family’s
acceptance of the only man she called her husband. While showcasing a
side of Selena that has never been disclosed before and clarifying
certain misconceptions about her life and death, To Selena, with Love is
an everlasting love story that immortalizes the heart and soul of an
extraordinary, unforgettable, and irreplaceable icon.
