The Secret Life

"THE SECRET LIFE, Salvador Dali's first volume of autobiography, was completed in 1941 and comprises one of modern art's most revelatory-and revolutionary-literary documents. From Dalí's birth, childhood and adolescence, during which we learn of the crucial events and influences which molded his unique perspectives on life, art, sexuality and philosophy, THE SECRET LIFE goes on to record the artist's inexorable ascendancy to global renown-starting with the Surrealist movement in 1920s Paris, and culminating in his conquest of America in the 1930s"-
