The name of the book is "Naked by the Window"..
I should link this..
"Carolee Schneeman, who discussed her friendship with Mendieta
http://www.artinamericamagazine.com/news-features/news/ana-mendieta/
Most riveting, however, was her frank assertion that she is convinced
that Andre murdered Mendieta. "She made me change her light bulbs. She
was afraid of heights. She would never go near the window," Schneeman
confided, adding how eerie it is to her that Andre still lives in the
same apartment from which Mendieta plunged to her death, and that his
new wife allegedly makes window-based artworks."
I was in Cuba some years ago and saw some of her works, extraordinary.
Do you know Unica Zurn? She was a great artist, married with the
surrealist painter Hans Bellmer,
she took her own life in the same way as Mendieta, throwing herself
from a sixth floor in Paris, her book Jasmine Man is shocking and so
beautiful,

I lived close by in the Village (Manhattan) when Ana fell from the
tall building. What a shocking event. I read a book afterward.
