Signature

Enrique Gómez Carrillo (February 27, 1873 in Guatemala City – November 29, 1927 in Paris) was a Guatemalan literary critic, writer, journalist and diplomat, and the second husband of the Salvadoran-French writer and artist Consuelo Suncin de Sandoval-Cardenas, later Consuelo Suncin, comtesse de Saint-Exupéry, who in turn was his third wife; he had been previously married to intellectual Aurora Cáceres and Spanish actress Raquel Meller.

He also became famous for his travels, chronicles, bohemian lifestyle and his notoriously numerous love affairs. At one point he was falsely accused of being the one that betrayed Mata Hari and gave the famous German spy up to the French during World War I.
