Hardcover. First US Edition. Black boards with black cloth spine with gilt lettering; small red design on front board. Yellow and red dust jacket with BW illustrations; BW ill. on spine with red lettering. xxvi; 465 pp. 26 BW, 16 color illustrations. Meredith Etherington-Smith has delved into unpublished letters and previously unavailable archives to penetrate the facade and put the work in context. She explores the profound effect on Dali of the remembered landscapes of his Catalan childhood and of his early relationships with his fellow art students Garcia Lorca and Luis Bunuel.The most important secondary character in this extraordinary life, however, is Gala, Dali's wife, muse, and finally tormentor. Their marriage was one of the most bizarre relationships of all time, and it does much to explain the last, tragic years of this great figure who was at once genius and charlatan. -- Excerpt from dust jacket.
