Contains the frank and uncensored confessions of Salvador Dali, from his childhood and first adolescent sexual experiences to his emergence as a painter, surrealist and eventually the most famous - and possibly richest - artist of modern times. These inspired tracts, covering art, love, sex, money, death, fame, science, his famous friends and enemies and his extraordinary creative genius, reveal the intricate workings of Dali's mind to create not only an unparallelled autobiography but also one of the key Surrealist texts yet published.
