Editorial Reviews

Dali here is presented here as both mad and sane. His odd mannerisms are those of a man possessed not of madness but determination; a calculating man striving to stand clear of his contemporaries by whatever means he can - affecting a most eccentric look and behaviour to make people remember his name...This book is what it is - a simple fantasy designed to engage a young reader with a great artist through a fictional encounter. And given that scope this is great fun.
